Pat Curran will finally get his shot at Eddie Alvarez and the Bellator lightweight title, as the promotion Wednesday announced that the pair will square off in the main event of Bellator 39.
The event goes down April 2 from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., and will also feature a 170-pound contest pitting debuting UFC vet Ben Saunders against former Strikeforce competitor Matt Lee, as well as the welterweight tournament semifinals.
