Bellator 155-Pound Champ Brent Primus Issues Apology for Michael Chandler Rematch Cancelation

Tuesday night MMA Fighting reported that Bellator MMA lightweight champion Brent Primus had to withdraw from his much-anticipated rematch against Michael Chandler.

A knee injury put Primus out of commission for Bellator 197, and while many are upset about the fallout of the match, none more than the lightweight himself, who issued an apology on social media Wednesday.

This sport is full of ups and downs. This past week has been a real low. I've trained and faught through injuries multiple times but this time was different.
