Эдуардо Dantas (20-4) ялагдсан Leandro Higo (17-3) хуваах шийдвэр дамжуулан (30-27, 30-27, 28-29)
Eduardo Dantas Quote:
“It was tough to stay motivated for this fight once he missed weight. There was nothing to gain whether I beat him fast or slow. It wasn’t for the belt, it wasn’t going to change my ranking in Bellator,” Dantas said. “Үед [Darrion] Caldwell got injured, I asked Scott Coker to bring in tough bantamweights and they brought in a tough fighter, but you have to make weight. I train hard for several months, I don’t go out, Би сургах. It’s the very minimum you can do. You have to make weight. Be a professional. I don’t think Caldwell is injured. I think he just doesn’t want to fight out of America. I am looking forward to getting my hands on him.”
Даниел Weichel (39-9) ялагдсан John Macapa (21-2) хуваах шийдвэр дамжуулан (29-28, 29-28, 28-29)
Daniel Weichel Quote:
“Macapa is definitely a tough opponent. He was almost undefeated coming into this with only one loss and I took him as seriously as I can take an opponent. At this time I treat everyone I fight as if it’s a championship fight. I think he is one of the top featherweight opponents that I could face so I’m pretty happy that I was able to beat him,” Weichel said. “I have to give a big shout out to all of my friends and family that drove 17-18 hours from Frankfurt and Cologne to be here and support me. They’ve been there for me and believed in me since day one and it’s difficult for me to even put into words how much it means to have them in my corner. I have to thank Bellator for putting me on this card and giving them the opportunity to come and watch me fight. I’m hoping that Bellator brings me to Mohegan Sun next week and puts me cage side so I can see who I will get to beat up next when (Даниел) Straus and (Патрик) ‘Pitbull’ тэмцэл.
Lena Ovchynnikova (12-4) ялагдсан Helen Harper (4-2) via doctor stoppage at 5:00 шатанд хоёр
Lena Ovchynnikova Quote:
“Before the fight I was a little bit nervous, and I felt that my first round wasn’t quite as good as I would of liked. But when the second round started she was going to feel my power and I knew that I would win,” Ovchynnikova said. “When the judges stopped the fight I couldn’t believe it. I was ready for a third round and I wanted to win with a knockout but we have what we have.”
Adam Borics (6-0) ялагдсан Энтони Тейлор (1-3) хүлээн дамжуулан (Арын-нүцгэн багалзуурдаж алах) үед 4:12 дугуй нэг
Adam Borics Quote:
“When the fight started, I felt a great deal of pressure from the crowd and I was in a bit of a rush. It took me a while to settle down and regain my composure, but once I did that I was able to see the fight much better. I’ve been working on my striking with Henri Hooft and I really was hoping to win with a knockout, but I saw my opening for a submission and I was able to end the fight with the choke,” Borics said. “I’m very happy that I was given this great opportunity to represent Hungary in MMA. This is very important for me to support the development of this sport in Hungary. It is my plan to continue to be an ambassador for the sport here and to continue to bring victories like this in the future.”
Brian Moore (10-5) ялагдсан Michal Horejsi (5-3) via TKO at 3:57 шатанд хоёр
Brian Moore Quote:
“Би үнэхээр байна, really happy that I got the call back from Bellator. To be honest I begged for the call back because Bellator is where I want to be. I want to be signed with Bellator, I want to be a household name. I really believe I’m one of the better featherweights in this division. I was given a guy who is very unpredictable. I was patient in my approach but I cut him down and was able to finish him. Өнөө орой I wanted to make a statement with a knockout because my dream is to fight at Madison Square Garden. I want to open up the show. My teammate James (Галлахер) is already on the card and we’d put on a super camp together and we’d tear that place apart,” Moore said. “My hero, Sugar Ray Robinson used to own the Garden. I’ve watched every bit of footage I can get my hands on of Sugar Ray, he’s my idol. So to fight in the same arena as he has – and obviously my teammate Conor (McGregor) has fought there too – it would be a dream come true. But I want to open up the card and set the tone for the night because when you see a fighter that is as exciting as I am that’ll set the tone. Give me anyone, I don’t give a f-ck.”

Leandro Higo:
“Thank you to Bellator for the opportunity. Та бүхэнд баярлалаа, Budapest, for the reception. I’m very happy to be here and I’m looking forward to putting on a good show Энэ Баасан!"
“I feel no extra pressure because I’m here to do what I love, which is fighting. I’m looking forward to winning another championship belt.”
Adam Borics:
“I’d like to welcome all of you. This is one of the biggest opportunities of my life. I’m very much looking forward to the fight and I’m well prepared, so I can’t wait. I was fortunate enough to prepare for this fight in America with great professional coaches like Henri Hooft.”
“I’m ready. I can hardly wait for my arm to be lifted at the end.”
Энтони Тейлор
“Welcome! Welcome! How’s it going? I am the “Pretty Boy”, the prettiest of them all. I definitely want to thank Budapest and Bellator for bringing me in. Мэдээж хэрэг, I bring numbers, та дараах зүйлсийг мэдэх, so I’m expecting this should bring over a million viewers, hands down.”

I kid you not! Anybody in the featherweight division stands toe to toe with me is going to get knocked out.”

But I give him credit because he’s coming out here and sacrificing his time and being away from his family to put in his work just as I am. We’re going to put on a show for all you fans out there and all you media out there.”
“You know in my eyes, this is the main event: The Hungarian versus the American. Everyone wants to see this fight. They want to see what is this man can do with a record of 9-0. He earned his wins and I respect him as a fighter. But after Баасан he will be 9-1.”

I realize that most people in the arena will be cheering for me, and for Hungary. I’ve done my preparation and my homework. I’m excellently prepared and I’m looking forward to this challenge.”
Karim Ghajji
“Thank you for the rematch. It was a big mistake in the first fight. Now I’m going to make it right and bring the belt back home to France.”
“Two days before the first fight I was sick and I had dealt with injuries during that camp, but this time I had a great camp, I’ve prepared myself very well, and this will be an explosive fight Баасан гаригт."
