Bellator bantamweight champ Eduardo Dantas is likely to return to the cage in February.

Andre Pederneiras, Dantas’ trainer and manager at Nova Uniao, told MMAjunkie.com that his fighter is restricted from contact for a month following a training session that left him dizzy and nauseous.

“He can train in jiu-jitsu and wrestling, but he can’t [take] a punch or kick to his head,” wrote Pederneiras via email.
