Bellator Fighting Championship Signs HyeFighter Akop Stepanyan

A couple of months ago in April of 2012, we published an exclusive interview we did with HyeFighter Akop Stepanyan and stated that he was making a name for himself in the world of MMA (click here to read interview).  We are proud to report that Bellator Fighting Championships has taken notice of Stepanyan and has signed him to their promotion.  Details as to when he will fight have not yet been made available.

Stepanyan holds a record of 11 Wins with only 3 losses.  But, his 3 losses were the results of his first three fights, all in in 2009.  However, from his 4th fight on November 29, 2009, Stepanyan has gone undefeated in his past 11 contests, with his last win coming via a second round KO on May 25th of 2012.

We are looking forward to to seeing Akop make his Bellator debut!!!
