Bellator signs Russian up and comer Magomed Saadulaev
by Hubert Lau on February 18, 2012

Bellator adds a new fighter to its rankings, Magomed Saadulaev, according to mmajunkie.com.

The 28 year old Saadulaev kicked off his MMA career in 2008 and now sports a 14-1 record, riding a three fight win streak. 

Saadulaev has proved to be a deadly ground fighter, all of his eight stoppages come from submissions. Saadulaev also displays a solid striking game as well, utilizing his strikes to set up takedowns where he can impose his top game. Saadulaev naturally has solid wrestling, able to quickly shoot in on his opponents to snag a single or double leg.

Standing at just 5'5, Saadulaev has competed with success among welterweights in the regional events in Russia but is set to drop to lightweight when he fights in Bellator. Saadulaev is likely to debut in a non-tournament bout in Bellator's upcoming sixth season.

Bellator's sixth season is set to begin on March 9 with Bellator 60.
