After a five-month absence, Bellator MMA has officially announced its return show on July 24 from the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn.
The promotion confirmed the news on Wednesday.
As MMA Fighting previously reported, Sergio Pettis will clash with Ricky Bandejas in a bantamweight showdown that will headline Bellator 242. Both fighters are coming off statement victories and the winner of this matchup will undoubtedly move closer to title contention.
The co-main event will feature former UFC welterweight Jordan Mein taking on Jason Jackson in a welterweight showcase.
