Viacom’s brand of MMA is finally returning after their pandemic break with Bellator 242, live tonight (July 24th) from the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut. The card’s headliner will see the younger Pettis brother, Sergio, in his sophomore appearance for the company taking on the ever-scrappy Ricky Bandejas.
Pettis made his promotional debut this past January, rocking Alfred Khashakyan on the feet and then choking him unconscious with a guillotine in three-minutes flat. We all knew how good Sergio was coming in, having already fought elites like Joseph Benavidez, Henry Cejudo, and Jussier Formiga in the UFC — but honestly who really saw that sort of violence coming from Pettis?
