Lorenz Larkin has found a new opponent for Bellator 207 on Oct. 12. Monday evening Erick Silva, who was supposed to face Larkin, pulled out the bout due to a rib injury as confirmed by the Brazilian to MMA Fighting following a report by MMAjunkie. The one-time welterweight title contender is now set to face Romanian Ion Pascu, sources confirmed to Sherdog.com.
Larkin scored his first Bellator victory against Fernando Gonzalez last January. Prior to that, he was on a two-bout skid after losing to Douglas Lima in his Bellator debut and being knocked out by Paul Daley at Bellator 183.
