Bellator has a new main event for its first card on CBS Sports Network after the cancellation of Paul Daley vs. Derek Anderson.
Daley was aiming for his third straight victory in the circular cage at Thursday night’s Bellator 247 in Milan, Italy, but neither fighter showed up for the weigh-ins. Bellator confirmed that Daley missed weight by 2.6 pounds and was then transported to a local hospital. Gareth A Davies first reported the news.
