With Jeremy Kimball missing weight last week for his Bellator Middleweight Tournament bout with Dan Cramer, Bellator has decided to move a tournament alternate bout between Joe Pacheco and Brandon Halsey into the semifinal slot.
That fight will now take place this Friday night at Bellator 116 at the Pechanga Resort and Casino. The bout will take place on the night's preliminary card on Spike.com.
The winner of that fight will take on Brett Cooper in the finals of this season's tournament. Cooper knocked out Kendall Grove last week in a fun back and forth fight. Whomever then wins that fight will line up for a shot at Champ Alexander Shlemenko.
Friday's card will also feature the semifinals of Bellator's season ten heavyweight tournament, topped by the fight between Blagoi Ivanov and Lavar Johnson.
