Special Announcement! Bellator MMA Has Something To Tell Us
They’ve told us to save the date — that’s all we know.
Bellator 232 fight card - Rory MacDonald vs. Douglas Lima: Start time, predictions, odds, date The pair of top welterweights collide in a rematch from 2017 for the 170-pound title on Saturday. Bellator MMA is reportedly plotting an eight-man light heavyweight tournament featuring former UFC stars Yoel Romero, Anthony “Rumble” Johnson and Corey Anderson, and more. Bellator’s light heavyweight division has been quite strong for awhile now, as the home of fighters like Phil Davis, Ryan Bader, and reigning champion Vadim Nemkov.
Bellator MMA is holding a virtual event tomorrow afternoon (Tues., Feb. 9 at 4 p.m. ET). No one from the promotion indicated what it was about in the “save the date” email, but we do have at least one hint as to what it could be about.

MMA Fighting recently reported that Bellator opted out of a February start date “for undisclosed reasons” and that a source with knowledge of their plans said the first big event of the year would take place Fri., April 9, 2021. It’s possible that Tuesday’s event will confirm that report and reveal the card for said same event, and/or future events for the 2021 schedule.
Just a few more days!

A much less likely, but intriguing, possibility is that Bellator MMA could jump networks again following its move to CBS Sports last year. The “Big Game” on February 7 featured numerous plugs for the Paramount+ streaming service, and making Bellator exclusive to it could be an attempt to beef up their subscriber numbers, as well as being a lateral move within the ViacomCBS structure that doesn’t hurt Bellator either way.
Time will tell.
