Hailing from Rio De Janeiro, Brazília, the flashy 27-year-old is widely known as one of the most dynamic competitors in the division, recording victories in 13 z jeho poslednej 15 konca. Currently in the midst of his second stint as Bellator’s bantamweight world champion, Dantas will look to stop Caldwell’s meteoric rise to the top of the 135-pound division.

Coming off a victory over Joe Taimanglo na Bellator 167, the 29-year-old Caldwell will be competing for promotional gold for the first time in his career on October 6. “The Wolf” was able to avenge his earlier loss to Taimanglo, earning his 10th career victory.

Oficiálne Bellator Kickboxing 6 Hlavné Card výsledky & Citácie:

Karim Ghajji (98-13-1) porazený Zoltan Laszak (11-3) cez delené rozhodnutie (50-45, 48-47, 46-49)

Karim Ghajji Quote:

“We prepared really hard for this fight. Everything that we set out to accomplish, we did. I know I could do even better, but you know in fights it doesn’t go exactly the way you want every time. In the first round when I slipped, I hurt my knee and it was extremely painful but I knew I had to dig down and do more and more to win this belt, which means everything to me,” Ghajji said. “This is the most beautiful day of my life. Like we say: ‘Hallelujah! I got my belt back.’ I felt a lot of pressure to get this belt back, and what an amazing sensation it is to win it back. I look forward to fighting the best fighters Bellator has to offer to confirm that I am the champ, but also, I’d like to compete in MMA. In France we have a lot of tough MMA fighters at our gym and my ground and pound is quite destructive. I would like to do this.”

Joe Schilling (21-9) porazený Alexandru Negrea (10-4) via jednomyseľným rozhodnutím (29-28, 29-28, 29-28)

Joe Schilling Quote:

“The fight was okay I was really surprised that he was so tough. He’s fought in Super Combat in Romania so he’s had a lot of tough European opponents that he’s fought against. Skill level I didn’t think he’s fought against the level of competition that I’ve competed against, but he did a really good job and he was really tough. He was trying to bait me into throwing with him and he’d try to catch me when I would come in, so I was trying to stay a lot more composed and show that I’m not that idiot that fought [Hisaki] Kato twice,” Schilling said. “I’ve made a lot of changes in my personal life. I’m a lot more focused and more serious and my goal dnes večer was to show the level of competitor and world class kickboxer that I am and I think I did that. Hats off to Alex, he did a great job. There’s not that many people who can take those kinds of shots for three rounds. I think the judges decision was a little ridiculous. I don’t think I’d have given him half of one round let alone a round. I think they gave him the second, which is silly. Ale, overall it was a good night, vacation starts now.”

Raymond Daniels (13-3) porazený Csaba Győrfi (20-6) a cez KO 0:36 na treťom kole

Raymond Daniels Quote:

“Another opportunity to go out there and make a mark with that Bellator brand. I know my man Nick Diaz says: ‘Cut out all that spinning shit,’ but I think he means everybody but me,” Daniels said. “I’ve been training for many years in sport karate and the martial arts and you know it’s a lot like training to be a sniper so to speak. There’s holes and there’s windows and when your opponent gives you those holes you have to seize that opportunity. I saw that hole, I exposed it, and it happened to be with my spin kick which is one of my most powerful and devastating techniques. If I hit that mark with that kick it’s a home run, grand slam, I’m hitting it out of the park every time. I’ve been able to spar recently with several great MMA veterans like Rory MacDonald, Georges St. Pierre and Tyron Woodley and I’ve had a lot of fun training with those guys so I’m definitely interested in doing MMA again. It’s a lot of fun to go at it with small gloves because people can’t use the big gloves as a shield to block my shots. I want to seize this Bellator Kickboxing title and continue to help build this kickboxing brand because I know they’re investing a lot of time into it. So yea, I’m definitely interested in crossing that bridge and getting some MMA fights, but my main focus is to take home that kickboxing gold.”

 

Jorina Baars (41-0-3) porazený Irene Martens (20-10-2) via jednomyseľným rozhodnutím (30-25, 30-25, 30-25)

Jorina Baars Quote:

“Bol to dobrý zápas, I thought that Irene [Martens] was very tough. I had control from the very beginning of the fight and I kept it for all three of the rounds. I was a little disappointed in the first round but the second and third round I performed much better. She worked hard and moved a lot, so my strategy was to keep the pressure on her and try to put her in the corner and I think I succeeded at that,” Baars said after her win. “It was amazing to finally fight for Bellator. The organization is so professional. I’m looking forward to my future fights here and I hope to win the Bellator title.”

Gabor Gorbics (31-10) porazený Gabriel Varga (13-5) cez delené rozhodnutie (29-28, 29-28, 28-30)

Gabor Gorbics Quote:

“I’m very happy with the win and I hope I continue to win here in Bellator,” Gorbics said. “I trained very hard for this. I’ve got a lovely family and team that helped me to prepare and I will get back in the gym v pondelok to continue training.”

Oficiálne Bellator 177: Dantas vs. Figa Hlavné Card výsledky & Citácie:

Eduardo Dantas (20-4) porazený Leandro Higo (17-3) cez delené rozhodnutie (30-27, 30-27, 28-29)

Citát Eduarda Dantasa:

“Bolo ťažké zostať motivovaným pre tento boj, akonáhle stratil váhu. Nezískalo sa nič, či som ho porazil rýchlo alebo pomaly. To nebolo pre opasok, nezmení to moje umiestnenie v Bellatore,” Povedal Dantas. “Kedy [Darrion] Caldwell sa zranil, Požiadal som Scotta Cokera, aby priniesol ťažké bantámové váhy, a tí priniesli tvrdého bojovníka, ale musis pribrat. Niekoľko mesiacov tvrdo trénujem, Nejdem von, Trénujem. Je to minimum, čo môžete urobiť. Musíte pribrať. Buďte profesionál. Nemyslím si, že Caldwell je zranený. Myslím si, že jednoducho nechce bojovať z Ameriky. Teším sa, keď sa mi ho dostanú do rúk.”

Daniel Weichel (39-9) porazený John Macapa (21-2) cez delené rozhodnutie (29-28, 29-28, 28-29)

Citát Daniela Weichela:

“Macapa je určite tvrdý súper. Bol takmer neporazený, keď do toho prišiel s jedinou prehrou, a ja som ho bral tak vážne, ako len dokážem vziať súpera. V tejto chvíli považujem všetkých, s ktorými bojujem, za majstrovský boj. Myslím si, že je jedným z najlepších súperov o mušiu váhu, ktorému som mohol čeliť, takže som šťastný, že som ho dokázal poraziť,” Povedal Weichel. “Musím vydať veľký výkrik na všetkých svojich priateľov a rodinu, ktorí šoférovali 17-18 hodiny z Frankfurtu a Kolína nad Rýnom, aby som tu bol a podporil ma. Boli tu pre mňa a verili vo mňa od prvého dňa a je pre mňa ťažké povedať ani slovami, koľko to znamená mať ich v kútiku. Musím poďakovať Bellatoru, že ma dostal na túto kartu a dal im príležitosť prísť a sledovať, ako bojujem. Dúfam, že Bellator ma na budúci týždeň privedie na Mohegan Sun a postaví ma do klietky, aby som videl, koho najbližšie zmlátim, keď (Daniel) Straus a (Patrik) „Pitbull’ boj.

Lena Ovchynnikova (12-4) porazený Helen Harper (4-2) cez zastavenie lekára o 5:00 z bicykla dvoch

Citácia Leny Ovchynnikovej:

“Pred súbojom som bol trochu nervózny, a cítil som, že moje prvé kolo nebolo také dobré, ako by som chcel. Ale keď sa začalo druhé kolo, bola cítiť moju moc a ja som vedel, že vyhrám,” Povedala Ovchynnikova. “Keď sudcovia zastavili boj, nemohol som tomu uveriť. Bol som pripravený na tretie kolo a chcel som vyhrať s knokautom, ale máme to, čo máme.”

Adam Borics (6-0) porazený Anthony Taylor (1-3) via predloženia (zadné nahý tlmivka) na 4:12 okrúhleho jedného

Citát Adama Boricsa:

“Keď sa začal boj, Cítil som veľký tlak davu a bol som trochu v zhone. Chvíľu mi trvalo, kým som sa usadil a získal späť svoj pokoj, ale akonáhle som to urobil, bol som schopný vidieť boj oveľa lepšie. Pracoval som na svojom štrajku s Henri Hooftom a skutočne som dúfal, že vyhrám s knockoutom, ale videl som svoj otvor pre podanie a mohol som ukončiť boj s tlmivkou,” Povedal Borics. “Som veľmi rád, že som dostal túto skvelú príležitosť reprezentovať Maďarsko v MMA. To je pre mňa veľmi dôležité pre podporu rozvoja tohto športu v Maďarsku. Mojím plánom je naďalej pôsobiť ako veľvyslanec v tomto športe a pokračovať v podobných víťazstvách aj v budúcnosti.”

brian Moore (10-5) porazený Michal Horejsi (5-3) cez TKO na 3:57 z bicykla dvoch

Brian Moore Citát:

 

“Som naozaj, naozaj rád, že mi zavolali späť od spoločnosti Bellator. Úprimne povedané, prosil som o spätné volanie, pretože Bellator je miesto, kde chcem byť. Chcem byť podpísaný s Bellatorom, Chcem byť menom domácnosti. Naozaj verím, že patrím k lepším muším v tejto divízii. Dostal som človeka, ktorý je veľmi nepredvídateľný. Bol som trpezlivý vo svojom prístupe, ale prerušil som ho a dokázal som ho dokončiť. Dnes večer Chcel som urobiť vyhlásenie s knokautom, pretože mojím snom je bojovať v Madison Square Garden. Chcem otvoriť predstavenie. Môj tímový kolega James (Gallagher) je už na karte a dali by sme spolu super tábor a toto miesto by sme roztrhali,” Povedal Moore. “Môj hrdina, Záhradu kedysi vlastnil Sugar Ray Robinson. Sledoval som každý kúsok záznamu, ktorý sa mi dostal do rúk, Sugar Ray, je to môj idol. Takže bojovať v rovnakej aréne ako on - a samozrejme môj tímový kolega Conor (McGregor) bojoval aj tam – bol by to splnený sen. Ale chcem otvoriť kartu a nastaviť tón na noc, pretože keď uvidíte bojovníka, ktorý je rovnako vzrušujúci ako ja, nastaví tón. Daj mi kohokoľvek, Nedávam f-ck.”
