It’s been five months since COVID-19 put a stop to Bellator operations, but that’s about to change soon.

Bellator is set to return in just 10 days with an event on July 24 at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. The first known booking features a bantamweight bout between Sergio Pettis and Ricky Bandejas.

Two people with knowledge of the situation confirmed the fight booking to MMA Junkie but requested anonymity since the promotion has yet to make an announcement. Combate was first to report the news....

Davis vs. Machida is a super sad fight on 9/11. That just smells of boring decision... And I think Phil is a good dude and love Lyoto but that's just one of those matchups that doesn't lend itself to excitement.
When they were both in their prime, I'd agree. As they are now- one of them isn't making it to the bell.
