Tears of joy in Saitama: Go behind the scenes with Bellator’s Patchy Mix at Rizin FF 20

Undefeated Bellator bantamweight contender Patchy Mix ended his year in impressive fashion when he jetted to Japan and represented the promotion with distinction with a submission finish of former DEEP bantamweight champion Yuki Motoya in their “Bellator vs. Rizin” matchup at Rizin FF 20 on New Year’s Eve.

Mix’s 97-second guillotine choke finish of Motoya was one of the highlights of a spectacular night at the Saitama Super Arena as “Patchy” enjoyed a night to remember on his Japanese debut.

Throughout the evening in Saitama, Mix was followed by Bellator’s camera crew, who documented his fight night journey, from his pre-fight warm-up all the way through to his post-fight reflections in the locker room, where the emotion of the occasion finally got to the tearful 26-year-old, whose eighth straight finish extended his perfect professional record to 13-0.

Recap the night in Bellator’s specially-shot video above.
