News broke on Friday that Brian Moore is set to return to action. The Wexford man is set to compete at Bellator Milan on October 1 against Italian fighter Simone D’Anna. The news was first reported by Cagesidepress.com.
It will be the first time we have seen ‘The Pikeman‘ in action in 17 months. That was at the Bellator Birmingham card in 2019. On the night Moore picked up an unanimous decision victory over Son Le Binh. That fight was at 135 pounds.
This bout against D’Anna will be contested in the 145 pound division. The Italian is riding a 3 fight win streak. He steps into the cage against Moore in what will be his second Bellator fight.
