The weigh-ins are in the books for Thursday’s Bellator 247 event in Italy – with some major changes to the lineup. Paul Daley (42-17-2 MMA, 8-4 BMMA) was set to take on Derek Anderson (16-3 MMA, 7-3 BMMA) in the welterweight main event. But Daley weighed in at 172.6 pounds, didn’t feel well, was taken to the hospital as a precaution – and the fight was canceled as a result. (For his part, Anderson weighed in at 170.4 pounds.) The new main event will be between women’s flyweights Kate Jackson (11-4-1 MMA, 3-2 BMMA) and Denise Kielholtz (5-2 MMA, 5-2 BMMA), who were scheduled as a featured bout on the main card until Daley’s removal. Jackson weighed in at 125.6; Kielholtz was 123.4. Bellator 247 takes place Thursday at Allianz Cloud in Milan, Italy.
