Last week’s Bellator 282 and UFC on ESPN 38 events produced a number of moves in this week’s rankings update. In the main event of Bellator 282, Johnny Eblen turned in his most impressive performance to date, completely shutting out now-former Bellator middleweight champion Gegard Mousasi. It was a...
Since the early days when the sport was anything but a mainstream endeavor, the MMA industry has thrived and survived through various websites, forums and, perhaps most importantly, social-media platforms. Fighters interact with fans, each other and many more through the likes of Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, which helps...
" UNCASVILLE, Conn. – After another dominant win under the Bellator banner, Lucas Brennan is in no rush to fast-track his way up the featherweight rankings. Brennan (7-0 MMA, 7-0 BMMA) made easy work of Johnny Soto (4-3 MMA, 1-2 BMMA) at Bellator 282 on Friday with a first-round...
UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Danny Sabatello might not make it look pretty, but he doesn’t seem to care. Through the boos and jeers, Sabatello (13-1 MMA, 3-0 BMMA) remained consistently dominant against Leandro Higo (21-6 MMA, 4-4 BMMA) and cruised to a unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 49-46) in the Bellator 282...
UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Magomed Magomedov is back in the win column in a big way. At Bellator 282, Magomedov (19-2 MMA, 3-1 BMMA) became the first to submit Enrique Barzola (18-6-2 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) in professional MMA, when he jumped for a guillotine and got that tap at 1:27...
" NORWICH, Conn. – Every time Gegard Mousasi steps in the cage these days, it’s preceded by questions of weight shifts and super fights. The lead-up to Bellator 282 has been no different. Before Mousasi (49-7-2 MMA, 7-1 BMMA) even has a win over undefeated rising star Johnny Eblen...
" NORWICH, Conn. – Cat Zingano is clearing the air. Contrary to the public conversation, Zingano (11-4 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) says she was never officially offered a Bellator title bout against champion Cris Cyborg (26-2 MMA, 5-0 BMMA), despite claims from the champion and promotion president Scott Coker. “I...
" The difference is stark. Danny Sabatello won’t stop his chatter. Leandro Higo doesn’t talk much in Portuguese and speaks even less in English. The recipe already made for an intriguing lead-up to Bellator 282 through social banter. Tuesday, Twitter fingers flourished into real (virtual) face-to-face insults and exchanges. Higo...
