Mesteren fortsatte derefter angrebet ved at udløse en række brutale ubesvarede hovedskud, der ramte den brasilianske legende.

Øjeblikke senere, da McKee for tidligt løftede armene for at fejre, Pitbull rejste sig fra nederlagets dybder kun for at blive mødt af et kæmperhelvede, der var indstillet på at stjæle hans krone og gøre krav på $1 million præmie. Med den 25-dobbelte BELLATOR MMA-veteran bakket op mod hegnet, MMA's smarteste unge slagsmålsmand låst i en guillotine-choke.

McKee og Patricio Pitbull for fjervægtstitlen, såvel som vores Light Heavyweight World Grand Prix-finale med Vadim Nemkov mod Corey Anderson er to kampe, der kan føre til enhver begivenhed alene, men vi bringer begge til SAP Center i San Jose samme aften for at vise fansene her, at vi virkelig værdsætter deres støtte gennem årene.”

I 2019, den 34-årige brasilianer erobrede BELLATOR Lightweight World Championship fra Michael Chandler, bliver kun den anden BELLATOR-atlet, der har to titler samtidigt. Med 23 slutter i 37 professionelle kampe, Pitbull har gentagne gange vist, at han besidder de velafrundede færdigheder, der kræves for at regere over flere vægtklasser.

I øjeblikket er BELLATOR MMA's andenrangerede pund-for-pund fighter, Nemkov erobrede BELLATOR MMA let sværvægtskrone ved at besejre Ryan Bader via anden runde TKO kl.BELLATOR MMA 244 i august 2020.

POST-FIGHT VIDEO INTERVIEWS HERE

C-Juliana Velasquez (12-0) besejret #3-Denise Kielholtz (6-3) via split beslutning (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) besejret #7-Matt Mitrione (13-9, 1 NC) via indsendelse (strejker) på 1:45 af runde én

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. Som jeg sagde, 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. For mig, 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) besejret Cee Jay Hamilton (15-9) via TKO (strejker) på 1:33 af runde to

Matheus Mattos:
“He’s a wrestler. Så, he could have done the boring game and taken me down. But he chose to go for the striking. Heldigvis, he did it because it was a beautiful knockout. If Bellator could send more strikers to me, then they would be welcomed.”

"Jeg føler stor, 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. Forhåbentlig, everything went well.

“My two losses were to two of the best in the world. Så, 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) besejret Dayana Silva (9-6) via TKO (punches) på 1:00 af runde tre

Arlene Blencowe:
"Jeg føler stor. 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. Så, 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-Johnny Eblen (9-0) besejret Travis Davis (10-5) via enstemmig afgørelse (30-27, 30-26, 30-26)

Johnny Eblen:
“My coaches when I came back to the corner told me not to brawl. Så, I took their advice and I thought I wrestled smart.”

“He was talking s— siger, '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.”

Indledende Card:
Sagde Sowma (7-2) besejret Ronny markes (19-9) via KO (punches) på 1:09 af runde én
Cody lov (4-0) besejret Theodore Macuka (1-1) via TKO (punches) på 1:54 af runde én
Diana Avsaragova (4-0) besejret Gabriella Gulfin (2-3) via split beslutning (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)

TOP PROSPECT ED RUTH JOINS THIS FRIDAY’S ‘BELLATOR 168’ CARD IN FLORENCE FOR HIS SECOND FIGHT IN AS MANY MONTHS

Efterlad en kommentar

 

Santa Monica, CALIF (December. 6, 2016) – It was announced today that one of MMA’s hottest prospects, Og Ruth (1-0), will waste no time continuing to build his resume, as he fights Emanuele Palombi (5-2) for his second fight in as many months. The bout takes place denne fredag på "Bellator 168: Sakara vs. Beltran," på December. 10 from the Mandela Forum in Florence and will air LIVE and FREE on SPIKE at 4pm ET/PT.

 

På kun 26 år, Ruth is looking to pave the way for the other members of “The New Breed," a group of highly accomplished wrestlers who have all signed to fight under the Bellator MMA banner including: Joey Davis (1-0), Tyrell Fortune (1-0), Jarod Trice (1-0) samt Aaron Pico og Romero Cotton – the last of which have yet to make their highly anticipated professional debuts. Before he was a three-time National Champion and four-time All-American wrestler at Penn State University, Ruth attended the world-renown Blair Academy in Susquehanna Township, PA, where he was the top-ranked recruit in the nation for his weight class. Having achieved great success at every stage of competition throughout his life, Ruth aspires to have the Bellator middleweight gold around his waist before long. After making the move across the country to Fresno, Calif., where he now trains at Dethrone Basecamp with other Bellator MMA fighters like Josh Koscheck og Chris Honeycutt, Ruth made his professional MMA debut just last month on November. 4, when he finished Dustin Collins-Miles with strikes at 3:19 i første runde.

 

Ruth now faces Rome’s Palombi, a seven-fight veteran with five victories including three KO’s and one submission. Ruth, who is taking the fight on less than a week’s notice, must quickly learn how to tune out a hometown crowd, who will certainly be heavily in favor of the Italian fighter.

 

The evening is highlighted by a main event featuring Italy’s most renowned mixed martial artist Alessio Sakara (18-11, 2 NC), who will duke it out with Joey “The Mexicutioner” Beltran (17-13, 1 NC) in a light heavyweight main event. Other Bellator MMA competitors will also be in action, Herunder John Salter (12-3), Yamauchi op (31-9) og Philipe Lins(10-1).

 

The Bellator Kickboxing brand will also be on display in Italy with a card that features a female flyweight rematch between Denise Kielholtz (45-3) og Gloria Peritore (11-1-1), but this time, a world title will be on the line. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” will also include a lightweight clash between Giorgio Petrosyan (82-2-2, 1 NC) and British kickboxing champion Jordan Watson (48-11-2), a middleweight matchup pitting Joe Schilling (19-9) mod Victorio Lermano (30-7), a welterweight contest pairing Luca Novello (22-4-2) med Karim Ghajji (96-13-1), og Kevin Ross(31-9) mødes Alessio Arduini (26-14-2) i en let kamp. "Bellator Kickboxing: Florence” airs Fredag, December. 16 på 11:15 pm ET, immediately following "Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii.”

Uncasville, Conn. (November. 4, 2016) – It’s a wonderful life for Phil Davis (17-3), who dethroned Liam McGeary (11-1) på fredag nat ved “Bellator 163,” taking home the light heavyweight championship.

As has been the case plenty of times throughout Davis’ illustrious career, his wrestling pedigree was the deciding factor, nullifying the world-class jiu-jitsu of the Renzo Gracie-trained former champion. For nearly 25-minutes, “Hr. Wonderful” maintained top pressure on the New York-native, frustrating McGeary and putting him into desperation mode in the fifth and final round. McGeary fought valiantly to both stop and submit the longtime Alliance MMA-product, men i sidste ende, Davis took home the unanimous decision with scorecards of 50-43, 50-45, 50-44.

McGeary, who suffered the first loss of his young career, was humble in defeat, admitting that while Davis was the better man throughout their main event fight, he will be back to reclaim what he feels is rightfully his.

Returning home to Southern California with a new belt in tow, Davis now sets his sights on his pregnant wife, who is due to give birth to his second son mandag.

Brennan Ward & Saad Awad Provide 90 Seconds of Pure Violence

In an absolute barnburner, Brennan Ward og Du Awad went toe-to-toe for the 86 seconds they shared the Bellator MMA cage together, doing their best imitation of Rock Em’ Sock Em’ Robots until “Irish” caught “Assassin” with an uppercut that sent the Palestinian face first into the canvas. With the knockout, Ward moves into sixth place on the all-time list of KO’s under the promotion’s banner, and now sets his sights on a future matchup against the elite at 170-pounds.

Neiman Gracie Tells the MMA World, ‘Gracie Jiu-Jitsu’ is Back

After finding out they would be competing live on SPIKE less than 24 hours before entering the Bellator MMA cage, Neiman Gracie (5-0) lavet hurtig arbejde Rudy Bears (16-15), latching on to an arm bar 4:39 into the opening frame and forcing the tap from “Bad News.” Gracie was able to add to his impressive submission record, which has now been stretched to three victories in three Bellator MMA appearances, including a pair of first-round submissions. The 27-year-old was also able to please Royce Gracie, who was cornering his bout for the evening.

Javy Ayala Spoils Return of Sergei Kharitonov in 16 sekunder

In what many people thought would be a triumphant return to the sport of MMA for Sergei Kharitonov (23-6), Javy Ayala (10-5) spoiled that, sending the Russian heavyweight to the canvas in a heap following an overhand right 16 seconds into the matchup. Med sejren, “Eye Candy” immediately inserted himself into further big-time match-ups, namedropping both Bobby Lashley og Matt Mitrione during his post-fight interview. In his last two outings, the Northern California-native has finished his foe in the opening round via stoppage.

VOTE FOR PHIL DAVIS 2016 – AMERICA’S WONDERFUL CHOICE

Efterlad en kommentar

Santa Monica, Calif. (Oktober. 25, 2016) - Hey America! As we near the 2016 Presidential Election, Bellator MMA is headed to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn on Fredag, November 4 with one of the most intriguing cards of the year. Headlining the event, Phil "Hr. Vidunderlige "Davis is on the campaign trail as he prepares for one of the biggest fights of his career vs current Light Heavyweight Champion, Liam McGeary.

 

In advance of the card’s main event, Bellator’s digital team collaborated with Davis and stand-up comedian, Adam Hunter, to produce a collection of six original digital campaign videos with a clear message that there is a better choice! Complementing the digital shorts, fans can actually vote for Davis at the touch of a button at www.VoteForPhilDavis.com up until fight night on November 4. In the meantime, watch these “wonderful” clips below and see why Davis’ stance outside the cage will make MMA great again!

 

One of the more outspoken athletes in MMA, Davis comes in having won three consecutive contests and seven of his last nine. Desuden, the 31-year-old has finished his opponent in half of his 16 career wins, including five submission victories. Davis earned his shot at McGeary and the highly coveted 205-pound belt with a key win over “King Mo” på "Bellator 154: Davis vs. King Mo” tidligere på året. A 13-fight veteran of the UFC, Davis will likely not be fazed by the bright lights of the Mohegan Sun Arena, in what is possibly the biggest challenge of his illustrious career. Look for the former NCAA National Champion wrestler to take this contest to the canvas and display his impeccable ground game in front of a packed Connecticut crowd.
