Bellator 260: Lima vs. Amosov was a mixed martial arts event produced by Bellator MMA that took place on June 11, 2021, at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.[1][2][3] The event was the first Bellator event with fans in attendance since Bellator 240 in February 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
