Video: A.J. McKee and Patricio ‘Pitbull’ face off ahead of Bellator 263

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – A.J. McKee and Patricio Freire stared each other down in a respectful faceoff ahead of their Bellator 263 showdown.

McKee and Freire will meet on July 31 at The Forum in Inglewood, Calif. in the main event of Bellator 263 in the finals of the featherweight grand prix. The winner will also emerge the Bellator featherweight champion, as McKee hopes to take the title away from Freire.

In what many are calling the biggest fight in Bellator history, McKee will put his undefeated record on the line against the hard-hitting Freire who enters as the champion of both the lightweight and featherweight divisions.

Check out the faceoff between the two men in the video above.
