With lightweight titleholder Brent Primus injured; Brandon Girtz has taken a massive opportunity to step in on short-notice against former king Michael Chandler.
MMAFighting reported late Tuesday that Primus has suffered a knee injury, also confirming Girtz will be Chandler’s new opponent.
MMASucka contributor James Lynch was – per usual – quick to put out an interview with Brandon Girtz, discussing the upcoming bout.
Coming up on six years fighting exclusively for Bellator MMA, Brandon Girts (15-7) followed up a big 2014-2015 by losing three-straight in the eight-month span between November 2016 and July 2017.
