Highly touted bantamweight prospect Mike Kimbel will make his return to the Bellator cage against Alex Potts at Bellator 207 in October.

Bellator officials confirmed the earlier reports to FanSided.

Prio to his pro debut, ‘The Savage’ put together an amateur record of 4-4 under various regional promotions. His amateur career was highlighted by a violent eight-second knockout of Steve Rivera in March 2016.

His opponent, Potts (1-0), is also coming off an impressive stoppage win in his pro debut, where he submitted Brandon Polcare with a kimura just three minutes into their bout at Bellator 182 in August 2017.

The man known as ’40 OZ’ earned six straight victories as an amateur before taking his perfect record to the big leagues. During his run, Potts earned stoppage wins over Chris Camacho, Sean McKenna, John Farrar Jr., Michael Taylor and TJ George.
