PRE-FIGHT QUOTES: Alexander Shlemenko: “Melvin [Manhoef] is a fast and strong fighter. He’s the best kickboxer in all of MMA. “I’m ready for this fight because I think I have great striking and grappling ability. In this training camp I sparred a lot with muay thai guys back home in Omsk, Russia and i also changed my diet to gain more muscle mass to feel much better and stronger. “I am absolutely looking for the knockout. Any kind of win is a success, but I really want the knockout.” Melvin Manhoef: “I’m going to fight Alexander [Shlemenko] hard and aggressively. The accuracy of my punches is what will make me win this fight. “I’m not looking for the knockout, I want to do three rounds of five minutes of hard fighting. If the knockout comes, then it will come. “He [Shlemenko] has a lot of speed and back-kicks. He has very good agility and is very well-rounded, but so am I. I think my striking, speed and kicking is better than his. “I don’t mind if he is too confident going into this fight. He has stepped between me and my goal, and the goal is to become Bellator champion.” Pat Curran: “A fights a fight. Everything can go out the window with one punch. “I’m looking to getting back to being my old self. I am humbled and hungry, you are going to see the old Pat Curran in there with a couple new tricks up his sleeve. “I’m always looking for the knockout or submission, but i’m ready to go three rounds. I’m prepared for any finish in any situation. “He [Daniel Weichel] is very hungry right now. He’s a submission specialist and I have a feeling he’s going to come out hard and quick. I’m ready for anything and no matter what it’s going to be an exciting fight, I can’t wait to get back in there. “I feel him out and bring him into my game. If he comes out strong I’m ready for that and we will match fire with fire.” Daniel Weichel: “This fight means a lot to me, like every fight here in Bellator. I will make a statement tomorrow night and will make everyone remember my name. “I’m well-rounded and my biggest strength is that I can put the pressure for all 15 minutes.” Main Card on Spike TV (9 p.m. ET) Bellator Middleweight Main Event: Melvin Manhoef (29-12-1) vs. Alexander Shlemenko (50-9) Bellator Featherweight Feature Fight: Pat Curran (20-6) vs. Daniel Weichel (34-8) Bellator Women’s Featherweight Feature Fight: Julia Budd (6-2) vs. Gabrielle Holloway (4-1) Bellator Welterweight Feature Fight: Chris Honeycutt (5-0) vs. Clayton MacFarlane (4-0) Preliminary card on Spike.com (8 p.m. ET) Bellator Featherweight Prelim Fight: Art Arciniega (14-4) vs. Emilio Chavez (7-5) Bellator Middleweight Prelim Fight: Blake Watkins (4-0) vs. George Zuniga (3-0) Bellator Flyweight Prelim Fight: Paul Ruiz (5-2) vs. Nicolas Sperling (3-2) Preliminary card on Spike.com (Following Manhoef vs. Shlemenko) Bellator Lightweight Prelim Fight: Nick Bustamante (2-0) vs. Luis Jauregui (2-1) Bellator Light Heavyweight Prelim Fight: John Paul Elias (2-0) vs. Cody Sons (0-1) Bellator Lightweight Prelim Fight: Jonathan Contrestano (4-0) vs. Ryan Tobar (3-1) Bellator Bantamweight Prelim Fight: Ray Cervera (8-2) vs. Adam Piccolotti (4-0) Bellator Welterweight Prelim Fight: Mason Fowler (1-0) vs. Marko Damiani (0-1) About Bellator MMA Bellator MMA is a leading Mixed Martial Arts organization featuring many of the best fighters in the world.

    Bellator MMA finalizes Spike TV lineup for “Manhoef vs. Shlemenko” With Addition of Chris Honeycutt vs. Clayton MacFarlane SANTA MONICA, Calif. (December 22, 2014) – The four-fight Spike TV-broadcast main card is now complete for February’s “Bellator: Manhoef vs. Shlemenko” event with a battle of undefeated prospects, as Chris “The Cutt” Honeycutt (5-0) meets Clayton MacFarlane (4-0) in a welterweight contest. Featuring a thrilling middleweight matchup between two of the most dangerous strikers in all of mixed martial arts with former Bellator MMA champ Alexander “Storm” Shlemenko (50-9) facing fellow knockout artist Melvin “No Mercy” Manhoef (29-12-1), “Bellator: Manhoef vs. Shlemenko” takes place Feb. 13 at Save Mart Center in Fresno, Calif. Tickets for the event, which start at just $28, are currently available at Ticketmaster.com, SaveMartCenter.com and the Save Mart Center Box Office. The 26-year-old Honeycutt is a two-time NCAA Division I All- American wrestler out of Edinboro University who was also a two-time high school state wrestling champion in his native Ohio. Following his collegiate wrestling career, which ended with a runner-up finish in the 2012 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championship, Honeycutt enlisted the help of fellow Edinboro wrestler Josh Koscheck and now trains at the longtime MMA veteran’s Dethrone Base Camp in Fresno. Honeycutt made his Bellator MMA debut in September, scoring a second-round TKO win over gritty Englishman Aaron “The Daywalker” Wilkinson. Meanwhile, MacFarlane makes his Bellator MMA debut after building an undefeated mark through his first four career contests while competing on California’s regional scene.
