Bellator 295

Bellator 295: Stots vs. Mix was a mixed martial arts event produced by Bellator MMA that took place on April 22, 2023, at the Neal S. Blaisdell Arena in Honolulu, Hawaii, United States.

Background
An interim Bellator Bantamweight World Championship bout and the final of the $1 million dollar Bellator Bantamweight World Grand Prix Tournament between interim champion Raufeon Stots and former title challenger Patchy Mix headlined the event.

A women's flyweight bout between former Bellator Women's Flyweight Champion Ilima-Lei Macfarlane and Kana Watanabe was the co-main event.

A featherweight bout between Aaron Pico and Otto Rodrigues was scheduled for this event. However, Rodrigues had to pull out with injury in early April and was replaced by James Gonzalez.

At weigh-ins, Ray Borg and Keoni Diggs experienced weight management issues and were unable to weigh-in, with both their bouts; a flyweight one against Kyoji Horiguchi for Borg and a featherweight one against Weber Almerida for Diggs being scrapped. Both Borg and Diggs were subsequently released from the promotion.
