In the opening main card contest of “Bellator 156: Galvao vs.. Dantas,” Fresno’s own Chris Honeycutt (8-1) begrüßt Mikkel Parlo (13-3) back to the Bellator MMA cage with a complete 15-minute performance, building upon the wrestling pedigree he’s known for with a newfound dynamic striking arsenal. Usually Parlo, a Danish fighter who had not competed for the Scott Coker-led promotion since 2014, gets the better of his opponents when the fight stays upright, aber doch am Freitag, es wurde “Die Cutt” who got the better of the punching exchanges. Schließlich, it was the 27-year-old Honeycutt who walked away with a unanimous decision, pushing out his current winning streak to two bouts and improving to 4-1 under the Bellator umbrella.
