Bellator MMA is back!
The MMA promotion makes it’s return with a big main event that features former UFC star Sergio Pettis taking on Ricky Bandejas. Coming in, both Bandejas and Pettis are currently riding a two-fight winning streak. Neither man has lost a bout in over a year.
Jackson is looking to build off his impressive victory over Kiichi Kunimoto as the “Ass-Kicking Machine” will step into the ring against former UFC veteran Jordan Mein, who hasn’t competed inside of the octagon since 2018.
In addition to those match-ups, expect Tywan Claxton, Chris Hatley Jr., Logan Storley, and Raufeon Stots to be in action for tonight’s event. Check out the full card for Bellator 242, with the main card airing at 10pm Eastern Time on the Paramount Network:
