A former lightweight champion in BAMMA, M-1 Global and Road FC, Barnaoui is 1-1 under the Bellator banner. He debuted with a second-round submission of Adam Piccolotti at Bellator 287 before dropping a five-round verdict against Brent Primus in a lightweight grand prix bout at Bellator 296 on May 12.
New Zealand’s Wilson has been victorious in nine of his first 10 professional outings — with all but one of those taking place in Bellator. The 26-year-old Alliance Jiu-Jitsu representative bounced back from his first career defeat in his last outing at Bellator 286, where he took a split-decision triumph against Vladimir Tokov last October.
