Phil Davis has announced that “King Mo” is out of his Bellator 180 main event bout vs. Ryan Bader, and, in turn, Phil Davis will replace him to welcome Bader to Bellator MMA in a rematch of their 2015 meeting.
The fight announced by Davis on The MMA Hour on Monday.
Davis (17-3, 1NC) entered Bellator MMA as a highly-ranked UFC light heavyweight in 2015. The loss that removed him from the UFC roster was, coincidentally, a very close split decision loss to Bader. “Mr. Wonderful” has gone a perfect 4-0 since joining the Bellator ranks.
