Bellator 106: Tito Ortiz Injured, Off Card


Former UFC light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz will not be facing Quinton “Rampage” Jackson on November 2 after an injury during training. Ortiz was apparently forced off the Bellator 106 card with a reported neck injury according to MMAFighting.


Bellator MMA officials have yet to officially announce the injury but are searching for a replacement at this time. The Ortiz vs. Jackson bout was set to anchor the promotion’s first ever pay-per-view card on November 2 at the Long Beach Arena before Ortiz was forced to bow out.


While the loss of Ortiz is certainly a loss of name recognition, Bellator MMA still has a stacked lineup for the card that will likely see Bellator lightweight champion Michael Chandler and Eddie Alvarez II elevated to main event status with the late switch.
