Erik
Perez will clash with Brian Moore
in a bantamweight bout at
Bellator 258.
Milenio was first to report the pairing. Bellator 258 takes
place on May 7 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., and is
headlined by a 135-pound championship tilt pitting Juan
Archuleta against Sergio
Pettis.
The 31-year-old Perez is still searching for his first Bellator win
after falling to Toby Misech
and Josh
Hill in his first two promotional appearances. Prior to that,
“El Goyito” had compiled a five-bout winning streak over stints in
the UFC and Combate Americas.
Ireland’s Moore is coming off back-to-back triumphs over Binh Son Le
and Simone D’Anna under the Bellator banner. The SBG Ireland
representative is 4-3 during his promotional tenure and 13-7 as a
professional overall.
