Bellator 241 átti að fara fram í gærkvöldi í Connecticut. Skömmu fyrir viðburðinn hætti Bellator við vegna kórónaveirunnar.
Þetta var annasöm vika fyrir Bellator. Bellator ákvað fyrr í vikunni að halda bardagakvöldið fyrir luktum dyrum en í gær tilkynnti Scott Coker, forseti Bellator, að bardagakvöldinu yrði frestað. Ekki hefur verið ákveðið hvenær það muni fara fram.
Patricio ‘Pitbull’ Freire og Pedro Carvalho áttu að mætast í aðalbardaga kvöldsins.
The health and safety of everyone involved have, and will remain, our top priority as we move forward. After carefully monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak, @BellatorMMA has chosen to postpone this evening’s Bellator 241 event at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.

Allir bardagamenn og starfsmenn fengu greitt.
All athletes that were scheduled to compete at #Bellator241, as well as officials, judges, cutmen and additional event personnel, have been compensated. Next to everyone’s health and safety, this was our biggest priority.
