“The UK is open, I think they are 85% vaccinated, so I feel good about this event. In Russia, I know they are doing what they need to do and my feeling is that it will be a large-scale event. Maybe they have some mask protocols. If something changes, we will adapt, but so far, it is confirmed. If Russia closes, we will find an alternative location,” said Cooker.

The last event organized by Bellator in Europe took place in October 2020. At the time, the show was headlined by Cheick Kongo and Tim Johnson. The organization already has three events scheduled on the old continent in London (October 1), Russia (October 23) and Dublin (November 05).
