Sergio Pettis expected to face Ricky Bandejas in Bellator’s return on July 24

A bantamweight fight between Sergio Pettis and Ricky Bandejas is expected to be one of the featured bouts as Bellator looks to get back to business on July 24.

The matchup was confirmed to MMA Fighting by multiple sources following an initial report from Combate.

While Bellator has made no official announcements, the July 24 card is expected to take place at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn. in a shared promotion alongside Showtime Boxing.

Pettis made his Bellator debut back in January after inking a multi-fight deal with the Viacom-owned promotion following a long stint competing in the UFC.
