Bellator recently celebrated its milestone 300th show, but its next one is looking even better. Welterweight champion Yaroslav Amosov vs. Jason Jackson and Sergio Pettis vs. Patchy Mix in a bantamweight title unifier top Friday’s card in Chicago for Bellator 301.

Amosov (27-0) is deep into one of the most impressive runs in mixed martial arts. The welterweight champ dominated Logan Storley in a rematch of their competitive first encounter despite a 20-month hiatus while defending Ukraine against Russia. Jackson (16-4) has slowly worked his way into title contention with five consecutive wins against the likes of Douglas Lima, Paul Daley, Neiman Gracie and Benson Henderson. It’s the continuation of a remarkable champion vs. the maturation of a rising contender.

Pettis vs. Mix might just be the most exciting offering in MMA this week. Pettis (23-5) silenced the doubters by defending his bantamweight title against Patricio Pitbull, a fighter many consider to be the greatest in Bellator history. The feat was even more impressive considering Pettis was coming off an 18-month layoff due to injury. Mix (18-1) went from tournament darkhorse to interim champion, crushing Raufeon Stots with a knee in the finals of the Bellator Bantamweight World Grand Prix. The two best bantamweights in Bellator will unify their titles this week.

Friday’s main card packs a serious punch. Former featherweight champion AJ McKee continues to develop as a lightweight against Sidney Outlaw, plus former lightweight champ Patricky Pitbull fights Alexander Shabliy in the semifinals of the Bellator Lightweight World Grand Prix.
