Chris Honeycutt beat Leo Leite from post to post and bell to bell.
Relentless in striking in grappling, Honeycutt (11-2 MMA, 7-2 BMMA) left Leite (10-2 MMA, 0-2 BMMA) with a massive hematoma and bloody face, and he also picked up a blowout unanimous decision.
The middleweight bout was part of the main card of today’s Bellator 202 event at WinStar World Casino and Resort in Thackerville, Okla. It aired on Paramount following prelims on MMAjunkie.
The final scorecards were unanimously 30-25, reflecting the lopsided nature of Honeycutt’s win. Apart from some spirited exchanges on the feet and some nice takedowns from Leite, the action belonged to Honeycutt over 15 minutes.
Leite started to break from the pressure late in the second frame when Honeycutt swept out his legs and continued to pound on him with right hands. Leite managed to get up, only to get pounded with more shots.
When Honeycutt invited the referee to stand up in the third, Leite wiped his eye and took his time getting back to his feet. It was hard to blame him after the punishment he took over the course of the fight.
For Honeycutt, it was exactly the kind of dominant win he wanted after a unanimous decision loss to Rafael Lovato Jr. that snapped a four-fight winning streak. Leite took another loss under the Bellator banner and remains winless in the promotion after a 10-fight streak.
