Manhoef is slated to return to action against former UFC title challenger Yoel Romero in a light heavyweigh bout at Bellator 280 on May 6 in Paris. It will be his first fight since suffering a second-round TKO defeat to Corey Anderson at Bellator 251 in November 2020. The 45-year-old known as “No Mercy” has competed for KSW, Dream, One Championship, Strikeforce and K-1 while compiling a 32-15-1 mark with two no contests.
