Bellator MMA is officially back with its first-ever solo event under Professional Fighters League (PFL) ownership. The re-branded “Champions Series” will kick off later TODAY (Fri., March 22, 2024) inside SSE Arena in Belfast, Northern Ireland, streaming live on DAZN (and MAX). Headlining the event will be a vacant Light Heavyweight title fight as Corey Anderson gets his third try to win the strap when he battles Karl Moore. In the co-main event, Featherweight champion, Patricio Pitbull, puts his belt on the line against Jeremy Kennedy.
Many readers check in before, during and after the fights to share their thoughts on all of the action, which will begin at 1 p.m. ET with the early “Prelims,” and then transition to the main card at 4 p.m. ET. Feel free to leave a comment (or several) about the bouts and chat with all the other Maniacs during the show — it’s always a lot of fun!
