The main event featured Johnny Eblen attempting to extend his unbeaten record and defend his middleweight belt for a second time when he took on Fabian Edwards. “The Assassin” is the younger brother of UFC Welterweight Champion Leon Edwards, and although he did open up a nasty cut on the champion Eblen stopped the challenger early in the third round.
The card’s co-main event was a matchup between Aaron Pico and featherweight veteran Pedro Carvalho. Pico’s shoulder injury against UFC veteran Jeremy Kennedy halted a lengthy winning streak, but he now has back-to-back wins after he stopped Carvalho with strikes just over three minutes into their fight.

The main card also saw Sara Collins extend her unbeaten record when she defeated Sinead Kavanagh. Longtime Bellator veteran Daniel Wiechel announced his retirement after losing a decision to Mads Burnell, and the main card was opened by Levan Chokheli's brutal front kick knockout of Sabah Homasi.
