Darragh Kelly will return to action with a title fight in Belfast in June.
The ‘Moville Mauler’ will face Claudio Andrezinho as part of the Clan Wars 47 card at the Crowne Plaza on June 11.
The Clan Wars lightweight title will be up for grabs.
Bellator have given Kelly permission to fight out of contract.
Kelly is 3-0 as a pro having beaten Dorval Jordan at the 3Arena in February.
A third round stoppage, via ground & pound, earned Kelly the third win of his pro career.
Now, the 25-year-old will take on Brazilian Andrezinho with the same card also to feature the pro debut of Letterkenny man Jordan Furey.
Kelly and Furey both train out of SBG in Dublin.
