The California-based promotion announced Wednesday that Noad Lahat will face Lloyd Carter at featherweight, while Steve Kozola will lock horns with Jake Roberts in a lightweight tilt on March 31 in Chicago. Bellator 175 takes place at Allstate Arena and is headlined by a rematch between Quinton Jackson and Muhammed Lawal. The main card will be televised on Spike at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT.
After a 2-2 stint in the Octagon, Lahad debuted at Bellator 164, where he submitted Scott Cleve in the opening stanza on Nov. 10. Meanwhile, Carter’s 10-8 professional ledger includes one appearances in Bellator MMA, a submission defeat to Diego Marlon in March 2014.
Kozola is unbeaten in seven pro appearances and has finished all of his opponents inside of two rounds — including two under the Bellator banner. Roberts is coming off a decision loss to Carrington Banks at Bellator 165, his first loss in eight bouts.
