Bellator’s light heavyweight division has added an undefeated Brazilian standout.

Bellator officials today told MMAjunkie that Leonardo Leite (10-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) has inked an exclusive, multi-fight deal with the California-based promotion.

A former dual-division champion under the Legacy FC banner at both middleweight and light heavyweight, Leite has been fighting professionally since 2013. The Brazilian native, 39, began training in judo when he was just 6, later turning to Brazilian jiu-jitsu, as well. Leite would go on to win world championships in both arts.

Leite’s MMA career includes wins over Myron Dennis, Moise Rimbon and Ryan Spann. Undefeated through his first 10 appearances, Leite has earned three of those via submission, including a pair of rear-naked chokes and one arm-triangle choke.
