With less than a week to go until Bellator 200, Mirko Cro Cop has been forced out of his main event fight with Roy Nelson through injury.
The Telegraph was the first to report of Cro Cop’s withdrawal from Friday night’s London event. As a result of the legendary heavyweight’s injury, the Bellator middleweight title fight between Rafael Carvalho and Gegard Mousasi will now act as the main event with Michael ‘Venom’ Page vs David Rickels serving as the co-main event.
Speaking to the Telegraph, Bellator executive Ryan Grab said:
Mirko Cro Cop has suffered an undisclosed injury and has been forced off the card, and we are looking at replacements.
The Cro Cop – Nelson bout was set to produce an alternative fighter for Bellator’s heavyweight grand prix which currently is down to its semi-final fights.
Bellator 200’s main card is now expected to feature:
- Rafael Carvalho vs. Gegard Mousasi
- Michael Page vs. David Rickels
- Phil Davis vs. Linton Vassell
- Aaron Chalmers vs. Ash Griffiths
