Pitbull (30-4) is on his second run as featherweight champion, having won the belt from Daniel Strauss in April 2017. That victory kicked off the most impressive stretch of an already impressive Bellator career for Pitbull. He has since successfully defended the belt three times, including a decision win over Juan Archuleta in the opening round of the tournament in September 2019. Before the win over Archuleta, Pitbull also captured the lightweight title by knocking out Michael Chandler.

Even with Pitbull's career success, Carvalho (11-3) believes he has the right skills to win the championship and advance in the Grand Prix.
