A.J. McKee gets new opponent for Bellator 205 main event
Bellator 205 has a new headliner, as John Teixeira replaces former champion Pat Curran against A.J. McKee in Boise, Idaho, on Sept. 21, sources confirmed to MMA Fighting following a report by MMA Junkie.
Undefeated McKee built a perfect 11-0 record competing inside the Bellator cage since his professional MMA debut in 2015, finishing seven of his opponents but knockout or submission.
Teixeira (21-3-2), who lost a decision to Curran last October, looks to get back on track after having a nine-fight winning streak snapped by Daniel Weichel and Curran. “Macapa” currently holds a 4-2 record under the Bellator banner.
