Grove to face Honeycutt at Bellator 174
Kendall Grove’s opponent at Bellator 174 will be Chris Honeycutt, the mixed martial arts series announced Friday.
Grove (23-16) had announced on social media earlier in the week that he would be on the March 3 card in Thackerville, Okla. The 34-year-old middleweight from Wailuku last fought in October, losing by technical knockout to Alexander Shlemenko in the Bellator 162 main event. Grove is 4-3 in Bellator bouts.
Honeycutt has won his last three fights by decision — most recently against Ben Reiter in December. The 28-year-old from Fresno, Calif., is 9-1-0 in his career.
The fight will be on the undercard of the inaugural Bellator women’s featherweight title fight, between Marloes Coenen and Julia Budd.
