Background

As the start of the $1-million Bellator Bantamweight World Grand Prix, the opening round will start with reigning Bellator Bantamweight Champion Sergio Pettis facing off against former teammate Raufeon Stots, while former champion Kyoji Horiguchi faces Patchy Mix. Pettis was forced to pull out of the bout and the Grand Prix after substaining an injury that required surgery, resulting in Juan Archuleta taking his place and the bout now being held for the Interim Bellator Bantamweight World Championship.

The co-main will feature Bellator Women's Featherweight Champion Cris Cyborg rematching against Arlene Blencowe.
