Undefeated Bellator featherweight champion AJ McKee and former two-division champion, Patricio "Pitbull" Freire are expected to rematch in April.
Journalist Ariel Helwani was the first to report the news of the matchup being in the works, although the promotion has yet to officially announce anything regarding the bout. The pair's initial meeting back at Bellator 263 last July ended with McKee finishing Pitbull in just under two minutes via submission due to a guillotine choke.
