Bellator will make a couple trips to New Jersey in just a month's time.
The organization has tapped the Palladium Ballroom located in Caesars Atlantic City for Bellator 68, which is the ninth of 11 shows planned for its sixth season.
The event is slated for May 11 – four weeks after Bellator 65 takes place at the nearby Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on April 13.
The event's main card airs on MTV2 (and in high-definition on EPIX), and prelims stream on Spike.com.
Currently, no fights are rumored for the card. However, Bellator officials told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) that event is likely to include some finales from the organization's current season-six tournaments, as well as some bouts with local talent. For example, UFC vet and recent Bellator Kurt Pellegrino, who hails from New Jersey, has been a rumored part of the event.
Caesars Atlantic City also played host to Bellator 49 and Bellator 59 during the organization's fifth season in 2011.
Tickets for the event are now on sale.
