The Bellator 263 lineup continues to grow.
Top-ranked lightweights Chris Gonzalez (6-0 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) and Goiti Yamauchi (25-5 MMA, 11-4 BMMA) will square off in a three-round preliminary card bout, which is one of the latest additions to the July 31 event at The LA Forum in Inglewood, Calif.
A promotion official informed MMA Junkie of the fight Tuesday, in addition to a welterweight preliminary card matchup between Johnny Cisneros (13-7 MMA, 4-5 BMMA) and Joshua Jones (10-5 MMA, 3-2 BMMA).
