kevin-baby-slice-ferguson-mma news

The professional debut of Kevin Ferguson Jr., perhaps better known as “Baby Slice,” will not take place at this week’s Bellator 160 event.

Ferguson Jr. (0-0 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) revealed on Facebook that an injury forced him out of a scheduled appearance.

“My role in the Team Body Shop Bellator takeover hit a bit of a snag over the weekend while training, and I’m sad to say that my Bellator debut will have to wait a little longer,” Ferguson Jr. wrote. “I won’t need any surgery though, and that’s bad news for every single mother f—-r on the roster.

“All of the fan support in the lead up to this fight has been overwhelming & I can’t wait to add a new chapter to the Ferguson/Slice fighting rep. I’ll still be at the event holding it down for my teammates AJ McKee and Joey Davis. Best believe I’ll be knocking heads out sooner than later.”

Ferguson Jr. is the oldest son of Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson, the legendary  streetfighter turned mixed martial artist who in June died unexpectedly at 42.

With the change to the lineup, Bellator 160 now includes:

MAIN CARD 

Benson Henderson vs. Patricio Freire
Derek Anderson vs. Saad Awad
Bubba Jenkins vs. Georgi Karakhanyan
J. McKee vs. Cody Walker

PRELIMINARY
