Bellator has announced the line-up for the promotion’s upcoming October 11th event in Wichita, Kansas, which will feature the semifinals of its next featherweight tournament. The card, which will be broadcast on SPIKE, will also see recent lightweight tourney winner David Rickels taking on J.J. Ambrose.

Rickels (14-2) scored wins over Lloyd Woodard, Jason Fischer and Saad Awad to win the Season Eight lightweight competition, but was quickly stopped by champion Michael Chandler in July.

Ambrose (19-4, 2 NC) is coming off a no contest decision versus Ibrahim Ahmed at a Gladiator Fighting Championship card in February, after going 9-1 in his previous 10 bouts.

Bellator 103 will be hosted by the Kansas Star Arena. Here is the line-up for the event.
