POST-FIGHT VIDEO INTERVIEWS HERE
C-Juliana Velasquez (12-0) ແພ້ #3-Denise Kielholtz (6-3) ຜ່ານການແບ່ງປັນການຕັດສິນໃຈ (48-47, 47-48, 48-47)
Juliana Velasquez:
“I think I would be clinching a bit more, her striking didn’t surprise me, but I felt that I did enough to retain the title.”
“I beat her with my jab, if you look at her face, it’s messed up, if you look at mine, my face is fine. I think people in the audience favor her because she has a kickboxing style and I counter, but I think it was my boxing that was the difference tonight.”
“When I come in here, I don’t think of myself as a champion, I think of myself as someone who needs to earn the belt and tonight I felt that I did that.”
#5–Tyrell Fortune (11-1, 1 NC) ແພ້ #7-Matt Mitrione (13-9, 1 NC) ຜ່ານການຍອມ (ການໂຈມຕີ) ຢູ່ໃນ 1:45 ຂອງຕະຫຼອດຫນຶ່ງ
Tyrell Fortune:
“I feel great coming out of the fight. He stepped forward so I went for the shot instead of throwing the punch and I guess I made contact with my head. Besides that I was running through him for the takedown. As you saw, I finished on top, and the fight went from there.
“I didn’t feel it (the clash of heads), I can only go off of what he was saying at the time. ເຊັ່ນດຽວກັນກັບຂ້າພະເຈົ້າວ່າ, I was just looking to get on top and continue to fight so I didn’t really know what else to do. I thought if there was a contact that the ref would have saw and we would have stopped that’s why I paused for a second on top of him. I didn’t go right to punching. Once the ref said to continue, I was continuing to fight.
“I want Tim Johnson. I don’t want a title shot. I’d rather have Tim Johnson first. That’s really the only fight I’ve been training for since that loss. ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າ, with him taking that loss (against Valentin Moldavsky) and me getting this win, it should line us right up… I’m gonna’ try to knock his a– out just like he did me.”
Matheus Mattos (13-2-1) ແພ້ Cee Jay Hamilton (15-9) ຜ່ານ TKO (ການໂຈມຕີ) ຢູ່ໃນ 1:33 ຂອງທັງສອງໄດ້ຕະຫຼອດ
Matheus Mattos:
“He’s a wrestler. ດັ່ງນັ້ນ, he could have done the boring game and taken me down. But he chose to go for the striking. ໂຊກດີ, he did it because it was a beautiful knockout. If Bellator could send more strikers to me, then they would be welcomed.”
"ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າມີຄວາມຮູ້ສຶກທີ່ຍິ່ງໃຫຍ່, perfectly strong. But I felt my knee go ‘thwack.’ And I stopped moving a lot. I didn’t do much footwork. I knew this was going to be on my hands, because my leg was painful. ຫວັງເປັນຢ່າງຍິ່ງ, everything went well.
“My two losses were to two of the best in the world. ດັ່ງນັ້ນ, I’ve been fighting at a high level a long time and I’m prepared for everyone. They can see that this fight welcomed me to Bellator, and now they know me. They know Matheus Mattos is a striker and he’s coming for us.
“I’m in my prime now so I’m prepared for everyone.”
#2–Arlene Blencowe (14-8) ແພ້ Dayana Silva (9-6) ຜ່ານ TKO (ດີໃຈຫລາຍ) ຢູ່ໃນ 1:00 ຂອງສາມໄດ້ຕະຫຼອດ
Arlene Blencowe:
"ຂ້າພະເຈົ້າມີຄວາມຮູ້ສຶກທີ່ຍິ່ງໃຫຍ່. I want to give a shout out to my kids at home. I’ve been away from home for nine weeks and it’s the longest I’ve ever been without my kids. ດັ່ງນັ້ນ, this win is for you.”
“I was just trying to gauge my distance. It was starting to be a little bit of a slow fight, so sorry about that fans. I could hear you yelling. But I was determined to keep my pace and not rush into anything. We knew that she swung with power and that the overhand right and the left hook came pretty quick. We’ve been working a lot on kicks, and I’m going to have a lot of bruises tomorrow. And hopefully her calves will be sore too.”
#5-ຈອນນີ ເອບເລນ (9-0) ແພ້ Travis Davis (10-5) ຜ່ານການຕັດສິນໃຈ unanimous (30-27, 30-26, 30-26)
ຈອນນີ ເອບເລນ:
“My coaches when I came back to the corner told me not to brawl. ດັ່ງນັ້ນ, I took their advice and I thought I wrestled smart.”
“He was talking s— ເວົ້າ, 'Hey, let’s brawl in the corner.’ I’m like, ‘Bro, that’s stupid.’ That’s why you’re not where I’m at. Because you don’t fight smart. You’re trying to come out here and brawl. You can do that all you want, but you’re not going to be a world champion like me.”
