Bellator 221 is official, with a superfight between two divisional kingpins as well as one of the semifinals of the welterweight Grand Prix taking place at this event.

The card is headlined by a champ vs. champ fight as lightweight champion Michael Chandler (154.8) puts his belt on the line when he takes on featherweight king Patricio Freire (154.7). "Pitbull" is looking to become just the second simultaneous two-division champion in Bellator history. In the co-main event, the welterweight Grand Prix continues as former titleholder Douglas Lima (169.5) meets the unblemished Michael "Venom" Page (169.9), with the winner advancing to the finals.

Bellator 221 "Chandler vs. Pitbull" takes place at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, airing on DAZN this Saturday at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. The event also features the undefeated A.J. McKee (145.8) facing veteran Pat Curran (146) at featherweight. In the heavyweight division, former WWE star Jake Hager (239.1) matches up against beef plant worker T.J. Jones (263.7). Opening the main card will be a featherweight collision as the unbeaten Tywan Claxton (145.8) throws down with James Bennett (145.8).

One fighter missed weight: Christian Rodriguez (*140), who came in four pounds heavy for his bantamweight fight, and he has been fined 50 percent of his show money. The commission allowed his opponent Jose Leon (137.7) to rehydrate in order to keep the bout together, so Leon has not been fined. Meanwhile, the bantamweight scrap between Askar Askar (140.8) and Taylor Moore (134.8) has been cancelled as the commission would not allow the two to compete with such a significant weight discrepancy, but Moore will be awarded his show money.
