The Battlefield Fight League amateur lightweight title is up for grabs at BFL 47, however a one half of the contest has changed. Juan Castillo failed his two-week out weigh-in, so stepping in for Castillo is West Coast MMA‘s own Matt Lepper. Lepper will square off against undefeated Sound MMA product Gwynn Berry.

The news came via Battlefield Fight League’s Facebook page.

Lepper (2-0) was expected to take on Billy Morrison on the undercard of this event, however with the step up in competition will now be training for five three-minute rounds instead.
