Bellator MMA has announced some changes to the cards for this weekend’s events, Bellator 166 and Bellator 167. Undisclosed injuries to both Emmanuel Sanchez and Patricky “Pitbull” Freire have forced them to withdraw from their fights at the events. Sanchez was supposed to fight AJ Mckee but now with his injury, Ray Wood (7-2) has agreed to face McKee at the event. This will now be the co-main event for Bellator 166 while a bantamweight world title fight rematch pitting Eduardo Dantas (18-4) against Joe Warren (14-5) will serve as the main event.

The original co-main event of Saturday’s card, Darrion Caldwell (9-1) versus Joe Taimanglo (23-6-1) has been promoted to the featured bout of Bellator 167 due to Freire pulling out of his main event fight with Derek Campos.

Bellator 166: Dantas vs. Warren 2 airs live and free Friday on SPIKE at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT., while Bellator 167: Caldwell vs. Taimanglo 2”airs live and free Saturday on SPIKE at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT.
