Bellator MMA returns to Honolulu, Hawaii this weekend for its traditional double header at Neal S. Blaisdell Arena. The first card, Bellator 294, carries a women’s flyweight title fight, as well as the promotional debut of Sara McMann.
In her second title defense attempt, Liz Carmoke put her weight belt on the line in a rematch with DeAnna Bennett to close out the night. The pair first met in 2020, with Bennett suffering a third injury that saw her hamstring muscle tear 95% to the bone. Carmouche grabbed the win that night; No fighter has lost a bout since then.
Also on the card, silver bantamweight Danny Sabatiello returns, while former UFC title challenger Sarah McMahon moves up to featherweight for her Bellator debut, facing multi-time title challenger Arelene Blencowe.
The event’s additional weigh-in events will take place Thursday in Hawaii; The full results can be found below.
