Bellator Paris Canceled: What’s Next for Fighters and Fans?

The highly anticipated Bellator Paris event, originally set for November 16, has been abruptly canceled, leaving fans and fighters scrambling for answers. The cancellation, confirmed by PFL officials on Thursday, came after Adidas Arena in Paris posted an announcement citing "circumstances beyond our control" as the reason for the cancellation.


PFL issued an official statement, shedding light on the situation:


“Bellator Paris (Nov 16) has been postponed, and fighters have been rescheduled for later dates. All previously purchased tickets for Bellator Paris have been refunded. Purchasers will receive a buy-one-get-one ticket purchase opportunity for the PFL Europe Championship in Lyon, France on December 14.”


This event was set to feature some thrilling matchups, headlined by a bantamweight title fight between reigning champion Patchy Mix and challenger Leandro Higo. Additionally, rising star Baissangour Chamsoudinov was set to return against Oliver Enkamp. Now, the question looms—what will happen to these matchups? While it’s unclear if these fights will be rescheduled for Bellator’s next major event on December 31, fans are left hoping to see them soon.


The Bellator organization has been no stranger to sudden changes. In September, the London card experienced a late shake-up when the main event between Johnny Eblen and Fabian Edwards was pulled. That fight was rescheduled for the upcoming PFL: Battle of the Giants event on October 19, leaving Sara Collins and Leah McCourt to headline the London show, with Collins securing a submission win.


For now, Bellator fans must wait and see when their favorite fighters will step back into the cage. In the meantime, ticket holders for the Paris event can look forward to the PFL Europe Championship in Lyon, where they’ll receive a special ticket offer.
