In the co-main bout former Bellator Welterweight Champion and No. 8-ranked Andrey Koreshkov was set to face Mukhamed Berkhamov.[2] However, Berkhamov pulled out of the bout and was replaced by Chance Rencountre.[3]

A women's flyweight bout between Veta Arteaga and Keri Taylor Melendez was scheduled for this event. However, the bout was scrapped for undisclosed reasons.[4]

A light heavyweight bout between Christian Edwards and Kevin Haley was scheduled for this event. However, the bout was pulled after Edwards tested positive for COVID-19.[5]

At the weigh-ins, Cody Herbert missed weight for his bout, weighing in at 188.6 pounds, 2.6 pounds over the middleweight non-title fight limit. The bout proceeded at catchweight and Herbert was fined a percentage of his purse, which went to his opponent Jordan Newman.[6]
