Rising bantamweight contender Patrick Mix is waiting on a new opponent after Dominic Mazzotta was forced out of their fight scheduled for Bellator 232 next weekend.
Bellator officials confirmed the news to MMA Fighting on Wednesday with a search under way to hopefully find Mix a new opponent. MyMMANews first reported Mazzotta’s withdrawal.
Mix has been tagged as one of the brightest young prospects to join the Bellator roster and he made an immediate impressive in his debut.
The undefeated New Yorker, who now trains at the famed Jackson-Wink Academy in New Mexico, needed just 66 seconds to put away Ricky Bandejas in his Bellator debut back in June.
