A scheduled featherweight bout between Luis Palomino (16-7) and Edson Berto (16-8-1) has been scratched for the card of Bellator 50 due to a late hand injured suffered by Palomino in training camp. Bellator officials announced the switch Thursday morning. MMA Junkie first reported the news.
Along with the announcement, two other adjustments have been made to the night's undercard. Bellator veteran Brett Cooper (13-7) now battles middleweight prospect Valdir Araujo (8-2), replacing late scratch Ryan Hodge (4-4). Also, undefeated lightweight Martin Brown (2-0) duels James Reese (3-1) as a replacement for Robert Goodridge (4-1).
Last weekend's season five debut marked the first time in Bellator history that an undercard was available via live streaming in the United States on Spike.com. The trend continues with Bellator 50, which will now be available throughout the entire world, per this tweet from Bellator executives.
