Chris Honeycutt was set to face Kendall Grove in the co-main event of Bellator 174 this Friday but was forced to pull out of the bout due to injury. Taking his place will be streaking UFC-veteran Mike “Biggie” Rhodes.
The new bout was announced by MMA Junkie late Tuesday.
Rhodes (10-4) has won four-straight fights over the span of a year and a half since his UFC release. Typically competing as a welterweight, Rhodes submitted Rakim Cleveland to win a middleweight title at Victory FC 51 in his most recent outing.
