A bantamweight showdown between Joe Warren and Steve Garcia has been added to the Bellator 181 lineup.
Sherdog.com confirmed the pairing with a promotion official on Tuesday following an initial report from MMAjunkie.com. Bellator 181 takes place at Winstar Casino in Thackerville, Okla., on July 14 and is topped by a lightweight clash between Patricky Freire and Derek Campos.
A former titlist at both 135 and 145 pounds in the California-based organization, Warren is coming off a majority decision defeat to reigning bantamweight champion Eduardo Dantas at Bellator 166 this past December.
