CHICAGO -- Canadian welterweight Nordine Taleb signed with Bellator Fighting Championship on Thursday.
The six-foot-one, 174-pound Taleb fights out of Montreal where he trains with UFC star Georges St-Pierre at Tri-Star Gym.
Taleb has a 6-1-0 record, with four wins coming by knockout. His last victory was a TKO of veteran Pete Sell in a Ring of Combat welterweight fight on Nov. 18.
The lone blemish on his record was a TKO at the hands of Guillaume DeLorenzi in March 2008.
