Bellator 121, the organization’s first “Summer Series” event of 2014, has lost its headliner. Officials announced Wednesday that Pat Curran (20-5 MMA, 10-2 BMMA) has suffered a “severe right calf strain” and been forced out of a planned title fight and rematch with Patricio Freire (21-2 MMA, 9-2 BMMA). Curran will apparently fight “Pitbull” at a later date once healed. Bellator 121 takes place June 6 at Winstar World Casino in Thackerville, Okla. The main card airs on Spike TV following prelims on Spike.com. “I’ve been training incredibly hard for this fight by pushing myself to my absolute limits in training,” Curran stated.
