The Champion Series 6 event was initially scheduled to take place under the Bellator MMA banner on November 16, 2024 at Adidas Arena in Paris, France with a Bantamweight title bout between Patchy Mix and Leandro Higo as the main event. However, this event was later cancelled due to unspecified reasons.
A Bellator Lightweight World Championship bout between current champion Usman Nurmagomedov and Paul Hughes is expected to headline the event.
A heavyweight bout between former Bellator Light Heavyweight Champion Vadim Nemkov and 2022 PFL heavyweight winner Ante Delija was scheduled for the event. However, Delija withdrew due to not ever signing the contract due to him undergoing elbow surgery and was replaced by current light heavyweight champion (also The Ultimate Fighter 19 light heavyweight winner) Corey Anderson in a trilogy bout. The pairing first met at Bellator 277, which the bout ended by no-contest in round two due to accidental clash of heads rendered Nemkov unable to continue. Their second meeting took place at Bellator 288, which Nemkov defended the title and won the tournament by unanimous decision. In turn, on December 15, Anderson stated that the fight was off because he is "too tough of a fight" for Nemkov. Nemkov now will face Timothy Johnson instead.
Khasan Magomedsharipov and Nathan Kelly were scheduled to meet in a featherweight bout. However, Magomedsharipov withdrew for unknown reasons and was replaced by Akhmed Magomedov.
