Why this card matters
The first confirmed trading card of a fighter who had by then been a professional for twenty-one years and a Bellator champion four times over. Crown Jewels is the product's title-holder insert, and Panini listed him under the Bellator name collectors know, 'Patrício Pitbull'. He is absent from the 100-card Season Ticket base set — he had signed with the UFC in February 2025, five months before the July 18 release — so this single insert is the whole of his Bellator-era cardboard.

- Checklist line reads '5 Patrício Pitbull – Featherweight' under Crown Jewels, not under the Season Ticket base set.
- Panini spelling with the accented 'Patrício'; Topps uses 'Patricio Freire'.
- Not to be confused with brother Patricky Pitbull, who appears elsewhere in Panini's PFL/Bellator products.
