Bellator 150: Augusto Sakai out, Vinicius Queiroz in against Cheick Kongo on Spike

Bellator 150 "Galvao vs. Dantas 2" comes to the Kansas Star Arena on Feb. 26, 2016 in Mulvane, Kansas. The main event that night is Marcos Galvao defending his bantamweight title against former champion Eduardo Dantas.

A heavyweight tilt between Cheick Kongo (23-10-2) and the undefeated Augusto Sakai (9-0) was originally scheduled for the main card on Spike TV, but Sakai withdrew due to injury and Vinicius "Spartan" Queiroz (8-3) will fill in.

"I'm really motivated for this opportunity again. Two years ago I had this chance to fight him, but I ended up injured," Quieroz told MMA Premium.
