Rafael Lovato Jr. has a new opponent for his featured bout at Bellator 198.
John Salter has withdrawn from the matchup for undisclosed reasons and will be replaced by four-time UFC veteran Gerald Harris in a 188-pound catchweight bout. Sherdog.com confirmed the change with a promotion official on Tuesday after Lovato Jr. announced the news via social media. Bellator 198 takes place at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Ill., on Saturday and is headlined by a heavyweight grand prix showdown pitting Frank Mir against Fedor Emelianenko.
