An injured has forced Valentijn Overeem to pull out of his main event fight at CFA 11 on May 24th in South Florida against Mike Kyle and Travis Wiuff will take the fight on two weeks notice.
The news of the injury and replacement fighter was announced last night on Inside MMA on AXS TV, who will be televising the CFA 11 main card on May 24th.
CFA 11 will come from the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, Florida and the card will feature transgender fighter Fallon Fox in the co-main event as she faces Allanna Jones in a featherweight tournament semifinal.
Wiuff (68-17, 1NC) is a former Bellator light heavyweight and heavyweight fighter. He is currently on a three fight losing streak with two of those defeats coming in Bellator.
This will be a rematch of his 2010 fight with Kyle as the first fight ended in a no contest. The fight originally was declared a knockout win for Kyle but the fight was later changed to a no contest due to a punch after the bell.
