Pa gen pwoblèm grandè a nan batay la ou ta dwe santi tankou sa a. Mwen eksite. Mwen itilize yo sa a kalite presyon. "
"Smith se yon chanpyon Ewopeyen an. Li te resevwa pa gen okenn pwoblèm vwayaje. Li pa pran swen si li emoraji. Si ou frape l 'desann, li te vini pou pou genyen, ak Se poutèt sa nou te chwazi l '.

Pòl Smith se pa sèlman goumen Andre Ward koupe nan yon kan uit semèn, li te batay Andre Ward koupe nan tout bagay mwen jis te ale nan. Tout fristrasyon yo, tout reta yo, tout moun sa yo emosyon ... li te goumen ke nèg vini Samdi swa. "

SANTA MONICA, Kalifòni. (Me 25, 2015) – On a holiday when Americans take a moment to remember those who gave their lives serving in the country’s armed forces, Bellator MMA officials are honored to announce a new partnership with the American Forces Network.

Multiple Bellator athletes including Bobby Lashley and Mike Richman have served in the American Military.

Brandon Halsey Defeats Kendall Grove Via Technical Knockout Vacates Bellator Middleweight Title Due To Missing Weight
All photos by: Bellator MMA/Eric Coleman
TEMECULA, Kalifòni. (Me 15, 2015) – While Brandon “Bull” Halsey (9-0) can no longer say he’s Bellator MMA’s Middleweight World Champion, he’s still managed to show his talent with a one-sided destruction of proven veteran Kendall “Spide a” Grove (21-15).
The contest served as the feature main event of Vandredi a “La ap: Halsey vs. Grove” card at Pechanga Resort & Kazino nan Temecula, Kalifòni.
Halsey nearly finished the fight in the early going, moving to an arm-triangle choke that would have finished a lesser opponent, but Grove somehow battled through the effort. Toujou, it was a one-sided round for the former champ.
Grove was able to avoid such a precarious position in the second, but he was still forced to be on the defensive throughout most of the frame. With a high-paced wrestling attack, Halsey simply pushed his way to the floor and enjoyed top position for almost the entirety of the round.
The pattern continued as the fight wore on, with Halsey simply overpowering his opponent and constantly earning himself the dominant position. Grove briefly threatened with an armbar in the fourth frame, but Halsey simply yanked his limb free and pounded away with punches shortly after until he earned the TKO win at the 2:25 mark of the frame.
The undefeated Halsey, who was stripped of the Bellator MMA Middleweight World Title for failing to make weight, will look to again earn the belt in his next appearance.
“I was my own worst enemy. It was how I performed. He didn’t throw anything at me that I wasn’t ready for. I was just trying to tough through the injury. I had to tough it out and come out with the victory,” Halsey said.
“Obviously, you want to be as dominant as possible. I just felt like I couldn’t explode through my combinations or explode through the fight and finish how I wanted to. But like I said, you’ve got to deal with adversity, and I did it the best I could,” Halsey continued.
“I learned my lesson. I thank Bellator. I apologize to the commission. It’s unprofessional not to make weight. Pa gen eskiz, but anybody knows that it’s hard to cut weight with an injury. The belt’s just a decoration, so I’m still the champ in my eyes. No one has taken the belt from me.”
In the night’s co-main event, former Bellator MMA Bantamweight World Champion Eduardo “Dudu” Dantas (17-4), of Rio de Janeiro, Brezil, took a step toward another shot at the title with a hard-fought decision victory over the hard-hitting Mike “Marin nan” Richman, of Rose Mount, Soti nan.
While Richman showed excellent takedown defense throughout the 15-minute affair, Dantas’ work rate helped him earn the favor of the judges. Constantly pressing and looking to bring the fight to the floor, Dantas was able to just edge out Richman on the cards, 29-28 according to all three officials.
“I went out there and fought the way I trained to fight,” Dantas said after the win. “I knew Mike Richman was going to come with everything, but I wanted to win this fight and get back to the title. The only fight that makes sense next is for the title.
