What time is Fedor’s fight tonight? Live stream info, start time, how to watch Bellator 269: Emelianenko vs. Johnson

The Fedor Emelianenko farewell tour continues on Saturday when he faces off with former interim heavyweight title challenger Tim Johnson at VTB Arena in Moscow, Russia.

The 45-year-old has proclaimed that he'll only fight one more time regardless of the result on Saturday, and Emelianenko (39-6, one no-contest) had a choice of who he wanted to face.

After going through a list of opponents, the former PRIDE heavyweight champion decided he wanted someone younger and on the rise and picked Johnson to stand across from him.

Johnson (15-7) steps into the most significant bout of his career, coming off a unanimous decision to Valentin Moldavsky in a Bellator interim heavyweight title fight at Bellator 261 in June to snap a three-fight winning streak.

Here is everything you need to know about what time Fedor is fighting at Bellator 269.
