Visiting the state of Washington for the first time, the main event was to feature reigning Bellator Lightweight World Champion Patricky Pitbull taking on the challenger Sidney Outlaw. Patricky avenged a doctor stoppage loss to Peter Queally to capture the vacant lightweight title in November, while Outlaw has won his last two bouts in Bellator against Myles Jury and Adam Piccolotti after suffering a loss to former champion Michael Chandler. On July 4, it was announced that Patricky had sustained an injury and that the bout would be moved to a later date. The next day, after Piccolotti pulled out of his bout against Tofiq Musayev, Sidney Outlaw and Musayev were booked against each other in the co-main. The co-main event was to feature former Bellator Welterweight World Champion Douglas Lima taking on Jason Jackson. The bout was initially scheduled for May 13, 2022 at Bellator 281. However, due to unknown reasons, the bout was pulled from the event and was rescheduled for this event. After the main event between Patricky and Outlaw was scrapped and the reshuffling of the bouts, Lima vs. Jackson was upgraded to the main event and 5 rounds. A light heavyweight bout between Viktor Nemkov and José Augusto Azevedo was scheduled for this event, however due to an injury to Nemkov, the bout was scrapped. A lightweight bout between Justin Montalvo and Vladimir Tokov was scheduled for this event, however due to an injury to Tokov, he pulled out of the bout and was replaced by Archie Colgan.
