McGeary relinquished the light heavyweight title in his last outing at Bellator 163, dropping a five-round verdict against Phil Davis on Nov. 4. That marked the first defeat in 11 professional appearances for the 34-year-old Englishman, whose Bellator tenure includes triumphs over Tito Ortiz and Emanuel Newton.
Fields, meanwhile, is a veteran of the British Association of Mixed Martial Arts and Cage Warriors Fighting Championship promotions. The 33-year-old Dublin native last appeared at BAMMA 24, where he submitted Dan Konecke with a brabo choke in the opening frame.
