Maykl Makdonald (18-4) mag'lub Piter Lijyer (8-2-1) ovozdan qaror orqali (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

McDonald Quote: “I was happy with the performance. He ate some heavy punches. I hit him hard enough to break my right hand again, so he’s very durable and I expected that from him. I’ve seen him get put down and keep coming. He was very impressive, I’m honored to have fought him and he really stepped up to the occasion. I think that I have some pretty high accolades for a bantamweight, but I really have no idea how that stacks up to the other guys in my division. We will let this hand heal up and find out soon.”

 

Valeriy Letourneau (9-6) mag'lub Kate Jekson (9-3-1) ovozdan qaror orqali (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

 

Rasmlar: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xv8mhtcx9eku5p9/AAB94OCwYqOCIUbHyTcU3chUa?dl = 0

 

Letourneau Quote: “I never feel like I’m doing enough. That’s the first thing I ask my coach: ‘Was it a good fight?’ I think experience has taught me to be patient in the fight and to fight smart. You always want to put on a show, but sometimes it can cost you the fight. Mening oxirgi kurashda, I didn’t do enough because I was too careful. I wanted to bring all that experience together and make the best of it.”

 

“This was a very important fight for me. Men 34, my daughter’s a teenager now. I’ve sacrificed a lot of things for my career. But I want this Bellator belt so bad. It was really hard for me to watch Ilima Macfarlane and Emily Ducote fight for it first. I have so much respect for both of them, but I wanted to be the first one to fight for the title. Afsuski, that didn’t happen but to me that’s the only thing I have on my mind right now. Ilima knows I want to fight her and she had a really good performance in her last fight. When it happens, I think it’s going to be a really good matchup. It’s going to be an exciting fight.”

Muhammad Yahyo (4-1) mag'lub Ash Griffits (4-5) via TKO at 3:26 dumaloq biri

Yahya Quote: “This is what we trained for and we executed exactly as we planned. I was very confident in the opening round. I said that I was going to win in the first round by TKO and I did just that. It’s confidence, but this is also a product of hard work. I was training very hard for this and I executed. I knew that I had the best team in the world and we’re on to the next one now.”

 

Filipp De Fris (14-6, 1 Shimoliy Karolina) Daf. James Thompson (20-17, 1 Shimoliy Karolina) taqdim orqali (Gyote) da 1:33 dumaloq biri

De Fries Quote: "Men katta his, the less damage the better. I’m not getting any prettier. Hats off to James, he’s a legend. It’s a shame it was over so quick, it could have been a barn burner. But I’m happy. I want to climb the ladder here in Bellator. If there is an opening in this tournament, I’ll gladly step in. I feel great at the moment. Fighting is 90 percent mental and the first half of my career, I didn’t have the head for it. But now I’m putting everything together, I feel great and I’m performing. Men tayyorman, Men hech kimni jang olaman.

 

Jeremy Petley (12-8) Daf. Lyuis Monarx (9-3) split qarori orqali (29-28 x2, 27-30)

Petley Quote: “I was prepared to do the job and really demonstrate my skills. He put up a tough fight and made me work for it. I was prepared for a war, and that’s what he gave me so I had to dig deep. Lewis was a good opponent but I knew no matter what the situation or adversity, that I have a big heart, I have work ethic, a good skillset and a good corner behind me. I knew that no matter what happened, I would come out with the victory.”

 

“This is a fraction of my potential. Men katta kurashlar istayman, I want the Bellator title. I want to move up, I want to move forward and fight late in the night. I have what it takes, so I’ll take anybody. This was not the most convincing win, but no matter who I face, I can win. I don’t care who it is up against me, I can always find a way. I find a way to win. That’s what I do.”

Los Angeles – Bellator is pleased to announce the signings of Valérie Létourneau (8-6), Alejandra Lara (6-1), Sabriye Şengül(Birinchi o'yin), Kristi Lopez (2-0), Na Liang (6-0) va Juliana Velaskes (5-0) to multi-fight contracts that will see them compete in Bellator’s emerging 125-pound division. Bundan tashqari, Bellator will look to crown its next women’s flyweight world champion this year.

“2017 has been a big year for us in terms of bringing in marquee free agents that can have an immediate impact on their division,"Bellator Prezident Scott cho'kadi dedi. “This group of flyweight signings demonstrates that we’re committed to that throughout our roster, as we’re adding even more depth to an already-competitive weight class. We’re adding a proven title contender, along with a group of prospects from all around the globe, and we look forward to putting on great fights and displaying the talent this division has to offer.”

These news stars join a division that already includes talented fighters, such as Keri Taylor-Melendez (1-0), Ilima-Lei Macfarlane (6-0),Anastasiya Yankova (5-0), Emily Ducote (5-2), Colleen Schneider (11-7) va Lena Ovchynnikova (12-4, 1 Shimoliy Karolina).

Kanadada tug'ilgan Létourneau, Somon vazn toifasida sobiq UFC chempioni, hayajonli janglar bo'yicha ta'sirchan rekordga ega, highlighted by a world title contest against undefeated UFC champion Joanna Jędrzejczyk. Hozir, moving up to a more natural weight class, the 33-year-old American Top Team product will make her debut for Bellator in 2017. She will look to improve upon her eight victories as a professional, beshta marrani o'z ichiga olgan jamlanma, to'rttasi nokaut bilan keladi.
