It has tonight been announced that the light heavyweight bout between former Strikeforce champion, Muhammed “King Mo” Lawal and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu wizard, Roger Gracie has been rebooked for the September 10th show. A source close to the situation revealed the news to MMAWeekly.com earlier today. The fight was expected to go down on July 30th but Lawal pulled out due to injury.
Lawal hasn’t been seen since he lost his title to dangerous Brazilian slugger, Rafael “Feijao” Cavalcante due to an injured knee he picked up during the fight. Prior to that he’d defeated Gegard Mousasi over five rounds to pick up the belt.
Gracie has looked impressive despite only a handful of fights under his belt thus far in his mixed martial arts career including submissions of Trevor Prangley and Kevin Randleman. He is currently 4-0 overall in his MMA career with four submission wins.
