MMAJunkie was first to report the card changes on Monday.
Bellator 185 takes place this Friday at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., headlined by the promotional debut of perennial middleweight standout and one-time Strikeforce light heavyweight champion Gegard Mousasi, who faces former Bellator middleweight champ Alexander Shlemenko. The main card airs live on Spike with the preliminaries streaming on Spike.com.
The card was originally supposed to feature a co-main event between former Bellator light heavyweight champ Liam McGeary and “King Mo” Muhammed Lawal. When Lawal suffered a knee injury, he was replaced by Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran Bubba McDaniel. Just days later, McGeary suffered an injury of his own, canceling the bout entirely.
