Bellator is set to return with an exciting middleweight title fight between champion Johnny Eblen and challenger Fabian Edwards. The highly anticipated bout will take place at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland, on September 23. Eblen, who has been dominant since joining Bellator in 2019, hopes to retain his belt and keep his undefeated record intact. Meanwhile, Edwards has climbed up the middleweight rankings and aims to prove he belongs in the title picture.
In his last fight, Eblen secured a unanimous decision victory against Anatoly Tokov at Bellator 290. This will be his second title defense, and he is favored to continue his reign as the champion. However, Edwards should not be underestimated. He recently defeated former Bellator middleweight champion Gegard Mousasi in a thrilling unanimous decision. Inspired by his brother, UFC Welterweight Champion Leon Edwards, Edwards is determined to bring home the Bellator gold to his family.
The co-main event of the evening features featherweight Aaron Pico, who will face off against Bellator veteran Pedro Carvalho. Pico, currently ranked third in the division, aims to solidify his spot in the rankings and position himself as the next featherweight title challenger.
Bellator 299: Eblen vs. Edwards promises to be an action-packed event, showcasing top-tier talent in the middleweight and featherweight divisions. Fans can catch the main card live on Showtime at 4 PM ET/1 PM PT, with the preliminary card streaming on Bellator’s YouTube Channel starting at 11 AM ET/8 AM PT.
