Background
A lightweight bout between #1 ranked Patricky Pitbull and #4 ranked Peter Queally served as the headliner for this event. This was a rematch of their first bout that was stopped by the doctor due to a cut on Patricky at Bellator 258. Originally set to be the co-headliner, the bout was promoted to the main event on October 6, 2021, when Patricky Pitbull's younger brother and Bellator MMA Lightweight World Champion Patrício Pitbull announced he was vacating the title, not wanting to get in the way of his older brothers title aspirations. Patricky Pitbull vs. Peter Queally was for the vacant Bellator Lightweight World Championship.
A bantamweight bout between Patchy Mix and James Gallagher served as the co-headliner for this event. The first scheduled booking between the two 135-pound contenders was supposed to take place at Bellator 258 on May 7, 2021.

Why this record matters
The phrase “bellator mixed martial arts event in 2021” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
The record creator and administrative purpose are central evidence, because official documentation reflects both action and institutional priorities. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 1, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q107920044. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2021 and 2020.
Later summaries often reconcile disputed chronology or motive more neatly than the contemporary record permits. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
