A day after an injury forced a lineup change for the main card at Bellator 218, there has been another adjustment.

Heavyweight Jeremy Hardy (6-4 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) was involved in a car accident, and his fight with Rudy Schaffroth (6-0 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) now is off the card. A Bellator official today told MMA Junkie the news, which Hardy also posted about on social media.

Hardy vs. Schaffroth had been a main-card replacement for a middleweight bout between Mike Shipman and Hracho Darpinyan, which on Monday was scrapped for a Shipman injury.

With Hardy-Schaffroth off, a middleweight bout between Will Lavine (1-1 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) and Norbert Novenyi (3-0 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) will move up from the prelims to fill out the four-fight main card.

Bellator 218 takes place Friday at WinStar World Casino & Resort in Thackerville, Okla. The main card airs on Paramount and streams on DAZN following prelims on MMA Junkie.

Hardy was scheduled to make his Bellator debut and was looking to rebound from a third-round TKO loss to Vernon Lewis this past October at LFA 52. That setback snapped a two-fight winning streak that included a first-round TKO win over Joel Moore at LfA 43. Prior to that, the Texan had a loss to UFC veteran Rashad Coulter in 2016 at Legacy FC 61.

Schaffroth, who trains at Team Quest in Portland, Ore., is perfect so far in his pro career, including back-to-back wins in his two Bellator fights. At Bellator 202 in July 2018, he stopped Jon Hill just 42 seconds into the first round. And he followed that up this past November with a first-round knockout of Lewis at Bellator 210. But now his momentum is on hold.

With the change, the Bellator 218 lineup now includes:

MAIN CARD (Paramount, DAZN, 9 p.m. ET)

Emmanuel Sanchez vs. Georgi Karakhanyan

Valentin Moldavsky vs. Linton Vassell

Gerald Harris vs. Anatoly Tokov

Will Lavine vs. Norbert Novenyi
