Bellator 299: Eblen vs. Edwards (also known as Bellator Dublin) was a mixed martial arts event produced by Bellator MMA, that took place on September 23, 2023, at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland.
Background
The event marked the promotion's 10th visit to Dublin and first since Bellator 291 in February 2023.
A Bellator Middleweight World Championship bout between current champion Johnny Eblen and Fabian Edwards headlined the event.
A women's featherweight bout between Sinead Kavanagh and Sara Collins took place at the event.
Khasan Magomedsharipov was scheduled to face Martin McDonough in the featherweight bout, however his opponent pulled out and was replaced by Piotr Niedzielski. At weigh-ins, Niedzielski weighed in at 147.8 pounds, 1.8 pounds over the featherweight non-title limit. Due to this, the bout proceeded at catchweight and he was fined 20 percent of his purse, which went to Magomedsharipov.
