Welterweight champion Yaroslav Amosov will not be competing at Bellator 281.
Amosov, a native of Ukraine, has opted to stay in his home country amid war with Russia and withdrew from his May 13 headliner against Michael Page at Bellator 281, the promotion announced Wednesday.
Stepping in to replace Amosov (26-0 MMA, 7-0 BMMA) will be Logan Storley, who meets Page for the interim welterweight title at The OVO Arena, Wembley, promotion officials announced Wednesday morning.
