While injury forced a short delay in Bellator lightweight champion Eddie
Alvarez’s planned title defense with season-four tournament winner
Michael Chandler, fans won’t have to wait long for the contest.
Originally scheduled to take place at this weekend’s Bellator 54 event,
company brass recently announced the matchup has been moved back just
five weeks and will take place at November’s Bellator 58 card.
Already featuring middleweight champion Hector Lombard in a 195-pound
non-title fight with Trevor Prangley, Bellator 58 takes place Nov. 19 at
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla.
