No Bellator Shows Planned for August

It appears Bellator won’t be offering three shows in this year’s Summer Series despite having done so in the past. Last week marked the promotion’s first event in what was recently revealed to be a two-card series where light heavyweight and heavyweight finalists were determined for tilts at top contendership in July. Based on the tournaments’ structure, it seems a third show is not necessary.

MMAJunkie confirmed the change with Bellator officials.

Interestingly enough, Bellator’s rating for Bellator 96 took a massive dive from the organization’s Season 8 run on Spike TV. It is unknown if this affected the decision to reel in this year’s Summer Series.
