LONDON (13 September 2024) – Results from the weigh-ins for Bellator Champions Series London this Saturday, 14 September at OVO Arena Wembley, London, are now final.
The event in England’s capital will be headlined by a No.1 Contender Bout in the Women’s Featherweight division between Leah “The Curse” McCourt (8-3) and Sara Collins (5-0), looking to settle who is next in line to challenge for the right to call themselves the best 145 lbs female fighter on the planet.
