Bellator has announced that a heavyweight fight between James Thompson and Bobby Lashley has been rebooked for June 19th. The fight will be part of Bellator 138, which will be hosted by the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri.

Thompson and Lashley were scheduled to fight in February, but an injury to the latter forced the bout to be postponed.

Thompson (20-14) is coming off a stoppage win over Eric Prindle last June, which was the British fighter’s fourth straight victory. The heavyweight holds a 2012, unanimous decision win over Lashley.

The American Lashley (12-2), meanwhile, stopped Karl Etherington in October and has won five in a row.

Bellator 138 will be headlined by a heavyweight fight between Kimbo Slice and Ken Shamrock. The main card will be broadcast on SPIKE.

Here is the updated line-up to date for the June 19th event.

Bellator Heavyweight Main Event: Kimbo Slice (4-2) vs. Ken Shamrock (28-15)

Bellator Featherweight Championship: Patricio Pitbull (23-2) vs. Georgi Karakhanyan (24-4)

Bellator Heavyweight Feature Fight: Bobby Lashley (12-2) vs. James Thompson (20-14)

Bellator Lightweight Feature Fight: Michael Chandler (12-3) vs. Derek Campos (15-4)
