The will happen at the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, Texas.

Soto took the Bellator featherweight title after winning against Yahir Reyes, Wilson Reis and Ben Greer. The 23-year-old has since won under the Tachi Palace Fights banner but returned to Bellator for a non-title TKO win over UFC veteran Diego Saraiva.

Meanwhile, Warren is coming to this fight after three-straight decision wins over Patricio Freire, Georgi Karakhanyan and Eric Marriott.

He is a former world-champion Greco-Roman wrestler, with mixed martial arts origins from the Japanese-based DREAM organization where he garnered a 2-1 record within just 7 months.

That was his statement as of late to the Chinese State Media. He missed last season’s games due to a foot surgery and is said to be recovering well.

Yao, is originally from Shanghai and used to play for the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). He first became part of the NBA in 2002.

Jack Tatum is best remembered for his hit that crushed Darryl Stingley to paralysis during an NFL preseason game in 1978, giving him the nickname, “The Assassin.”

However, Jack Tatum wasn’t at all proud of the hit but it did cause him some remorse and alienation among his peers.

Despite that, many of his colleagues consider Tatum as one of the best NFL players there is. In a statement, fellow Raiders John Hicks says, “Jack was a true Raider champion and a true Raider warrior. Jack was the standard bearer and an inspiration for the position of safety throughout college and professional football.”

Currently, no official fight cards have been announced but sources say that it would definitely feature lightweight champion Shinya Aoki and UFC veteran Caol Uno.

There is also buzz that mini-grand-prix finalists Tatsuya Mizuno and Gegard Mousasi will be fighting for the first-ever DREAM light-heavyweight belt. But Aoki is expected to headline the show.

Aside from Mayweather, Cotto was also one of the top choices for Pacquiao but boxing Promoter Bob Arum said that Pacquiao’s first victory over Miguel Cotto was too one-sided to warrant a rematch.

The Pacquiao vs Margarito match will be held in Las Vegas if Margarito can get a Nevada license. If not, then it will be a home court advantage for him as it will be held in Monterrey, Mexico.

Margarito was suspended after foreign substances were found in his gloves prior to his loss to Shane Mosley in late January 2009.

It can be remembered that fluid was already drained off Bryant’s knee during the playoffs, and despite several other injuries, he was still able to lead his team to their second straight title at the NBA.

However, there is still no news whether Bryant is also scheduled for a surgery on his index finger which got broken late last year.

In related news, the Lakers have signed Theo Ratliff and Matt Barnes on Thursday, further strengthening their roster.
