Pat Curran’s next Bellator featherweight title defense is set.
The promotion announced Wednesday that Curran will defend the strap against Daniel Straus on April 4 at Ovation Hall inside Revel Resort & Casino in Atlantic City, N.J.
The 25-year-old Curran (18-4) has won his last five fights in a row. He most recently defeated Patricio Freire via split decision in Bellator’s Spike TV debut last month.
Straus (21-4) beat Marlon Sandro in the finals of Bellator’s season six lightweight tournament to earn a shot at the title. Since then, he also picked up a win over veteran Alvin Robinson.
The card will also feature top 125-pounder Jessica Eye (9-1) vs. Munah Holland (5-2). Eye’s most recent win over former 115-pound champion Zoila Frausto Gurgel in December extended her winning streak to seven in a row.
Lyman Good vs. Dante Rivera and former UFC fighter Tom DeBlass vs. Carlos Brooks will also take place on the card, which will air on Spike TV and SpikeTV.com.
