For the second time in less than six months, the confrontation between Marcos Loro and Dudu Dantas, valid for the event's bantamweight category title, was canceled at the last minute. Ill since the beginning of the week, Loro will not be able to perform at this Friday's event (26) and was forced to abandon the fight.

As he made weight and presented himself appropriately, Dudu will receive his scholarship as normal. A new date for the fight should be announced soon by the Bellator organization. With the departure of Galvão x Dantas 2, Bellator 150 will now have as its main fight the duel between Brazilian Vinícius Spartan and Frenchman Cheick Kongo.
Former training partners at Nova União, Dudu Dantas and Marcos Loro faced each other for the bantamweight title in 2013, with Dudu winning. Loro later won the belt by beating Joe Warren and would make his first title defense against Dantas himself, in October last year. However, Dudu ended up getting injured on the eve of the card and the fight ended up being postponed.
