Sergei Kharitonov After losing one high-profile bout, officials today added some new fights to this month’s Bellator 154 lineup. With an injury forcing Josh Thomson (22-8 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) out of a planned bout with former lightweight champion Michael Chandler (14-3 MMA, 11-3 BMMA), the organization has scrapped the matchup altogether. Related: Josh Thomson out of Bellator 154 bout with Michael Chandler due to injury Two new main-card bouts, as well as a full slate of prelims, are now set, though. Bellator 154, which goes head-to-head with UFC 198’s preliminary card, takes place May 14 at SAP Center in San Jose, Calif. The main card airs on Spike following prelims on MMAjunkie. In a heavyweight bout, PRIDE, Strikeforce and M-1 vet Sergei Kharitonov (23-5 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), who’s riding a five-fight winning streak with four consecutive knockout victories, makes his promotional debut against Josh Appelt (12-5 MMA, 3-1 BMMA), who went 3-1 in his first Bellator stint before a recent run in the California-based WFC promotion, where he went 2-2 and recently won the heavyweight title with a second-round TKO of Roy Boughton.

After defending his title by submitting Ortiz (24-11 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) with a slick inverted-triangle choke , light-heavyweight champ McGeary (24-11 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) needs clearance from a doctor for a “medial lateral” leg strain, or he is benched for six months. Ortiz could face the same term for neck pain; in 2014, his Bellator debut was delayed by a fractured neck . MMAjunkie today obtained the list of medical suspensions from the California State Athletic Commission for this past Saturday’s “Bellator 142: Dynamite” event, which featured a hybrid MMA-kickboxing card
