Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal wound up fighting Dustin Jacoby earlier this month at Bellator 123 after injuries took out two other scheduled opponents for the event.
One of those was Tom DeBlass, and Bellator is looking to book that fight again this fall.
According to a report from Sherdog.com, the bout will take place at Bellator 131 in San Diego on Nov. 15, joining the event headlined by Tito Ortiz vs. Stephan Bonnar.
Lawal defeated Jacoby by TKO on the Sept. 5 card, bouncing back from a bad decision against Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. As for DeBlass, the 32-year-old will try to pick up his third win in three Bellator fights, having stopped both Carlos Brooks and Jason Lambert last year.
The Bellator 131 event also features a rematch between Michael Chandler and Will Brooks for the Vacant Bellator Lightweight Championship, and will go head to head with UFC 180.
