Wilson Reis (9-1) will first look to capture the Bellator featherweight title before he makes his MMA debut in Japan.

Bellator made the announcement Monday that Reis would again be entering the promotion’s featherweight tournament, beginning in April. But last week, it appeared Reis was headed to Japan on March 7 to face Cage Force featherweight champion Yuji Hoshino.

World Victory Road’s announcement of the Reis-Hoshino fight at Sengoku 12 was apparently premature.
