Melvin Guillard will face Mike Bronzoulis in a lightweight matchup at Bellator 149.

Bellator MMA President Scott Coker on Tuesday announced the bout via Twitter. Bellator 149 takes place at the Toyota Center in Houston on Feb. 21 and is headlined by a trilogy bout between Ken Shamrock and Royce Gracie. The tent-pole event also features a heavyweight showdown pitting Kimbo Slice against Dhafir “Dada 5000” Harris. The evening’s main card airs on Spike TV at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT.

Guillard had a rough promotional debut, as “The Young Assassin” suffered a split-decision defeat against underdog Brandon Girtz at Bellator 141 on Aug.
