Bellator 282 adds Bryce Logan vs. Mandel Nallo lightweight clash

Bellator 282 has added some depth.

Lightweights Bryce Logan and Mandel Nallo will square off in a preliminary card bout at the June 24 event, which takes place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. The main card streams on Showtime after prelims on MMA Junkie.

Two people with knowledge of the matchup, including a promotion official, recently informed MMA Junkie of the booking.

South Dakota’s Logan (12-6 MMA, 0-3 BMMA) still seeks his first Bellator win as he enters his fourth attempt. Currently on a two-fight losing skid, Logan has dropped back-to-back decisions against Georgi Karakhnayan and Mike Hamel.

Nallo (8-2 MMA, 2-2 BMMA) looks to bounce back into the win column after a TKO loss to Nick Browne at Bellator 274 in February. Nallo is a standup specialist with an extensive highlight reel of knockouts and trains out of Tristar in Montreal.

With the addition, the Bellator 282 lineup includes:

• Champion Gegard Mousasi vs. Johnny Eblen – for middleweight title
• Enrique Barzola vs. Magomed Magomedov – bantamweight grand prix quarterfinal
• Leandro Higo vs. Danny Sabatello – bantamweight grand prix quarterfinal
