Brent Primus Replaces Sidney Outlaw in Bellator Lightweight Grand Prix

Former Bellator lightweight champion, Brent Primus, will replace Sidney Outlaw, who failed drug testing, and will face Mansour Barnaoui in the quarter-finals of the Bellator Lightweight Grand Prix on May 12 at Bellator 296 in Paris.

Representatives of the organization officially announced the replacement, saying that Outlow’s doping test tested positive for ostarine, cardarine and anastrozole, and the fighter would be disqualified for at least six months.

37-year-old Brent Primus fought his last fight in June last year, losing by TKO in the second round to Alexander Shabliy, and 30-year-old Mansour Barnaoui made a successful debut in the organization in October, finishing with a rear naked choke from Adam Piccolotti.

Brent Primus is currently ranked sixth in the Bellator lightweight rankings, while Mansour Barnawi is not in the top 10 of the division.
