Headlining the Bellator 258 fight card is bantamweight champion Juan Archuleta (25-2, 11 KOs), who will be facing title challenger Sergio Pettis (20-5, 3 KOs). Archuleta won the belt at Bellator 246 last fall, where he bested Patrick “Patchy” Mix (who is fighting on the undercard tonight). Pettis is the number one-ranked bantamweight on the Bellator roster, so this should be an exciting fight. UFC veteran Anthony Johnson (22-6, 16 KOs) is making his Bellator debut against Jose Augusto (7-2, 5 KOs) as the co-main event.

The action begins with the prelims at 5:30 PM ET tonight, and you can watch Bellator 258 live stream by signing up for a free month of Showtime.

UFC 277 is coming this Saturday, bringing one of the most exciting and interesting rematches of 2022 as the main event. Newly crowned UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Julianna Peña will defend her title for the first time against former bantamweight and current women's featherweight champ Amanda Nunes, following their last encounter at UFC 269 which resulted in one of the biggest upsets in MMA history. If you didn't catch the action last time, read on to learn more about the history between these two fighters, and then be sure to sign up for ESPN+ and grab the UFC 277 PPV bundle deal so you don't miss a thing this weekend.

Amanda "The Lioness" Nunes is one of those UFC stars who hardly needs an introduction. Widely considered to be the best female MMA fighter in the world, the 34 year-old Brazilian is the first woman to hold UFC championships in two divisions and is the first and only champ to have successfully defended and retained two titles while still holding them. Nunes currently holds a record of 21 wins and five losses, and remains the number one-ranked female bantamweight fighter.
