Bellator MMA wraps up its busy September by returning to the United Kingdom for Bellator London.
All fighters, including headliners Leah McCourt and Sara Collins, successfully made weight. However, one fight was scrapped with no exact reason given. The official X account announced that “Eman Almudhaf vs. Daiane Silva is off the card.” As a result, the card will proceed with nine fights.
McCourt (8-3) enters the main event off a TKO win over Sara McMann. It was a bounce-back win for “The Curse,” as the Northern Ireland fighter previously lost a decision to Cat Zingano. McCourt officially weighed 145.9 pounds for the featherweight main event.
Meanwhile, Collins is undefeated at 5-0 as a pro. The Australian recently defeated Sinead Kavanagh by split decision and also beat Pam Sorenson in the promotion. The 34-year-old stepped on the scale at 145.8 pounds.
Bellator London will air live on Max at 12:30 p.m. ET/9:30 a.m. PT on Saturday.
