For the first time this year, two of the top MMA promotions in the world will be competing for your viewership this Saturday. While the UFC holds its first-ever event in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia on the ABC television network, Bellator MMA returns to the Max streaming service for its third Champions Series card at the same time.
Our focus for this piece is on the latter promotion. The first Saturday after the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere sees Bellator head to Dublin, Ireland for Bellator Champions Series 3.
