Reynaldo Trujillo gave a valiant effort in what was his second fight in a two week stretch. But he didn’t have enough to overcome CES MMA featherweight champion Matt Bessette , succumbing to a doctor’s stoppage after the second round in Friday’s CES MMA 44 headliner. Bessette (22-7) had to empty the tank in order to put Trujillo (21-19) into position for the fight to be stopped, but his striking game eventually inflicted enough punishment to force the doctor to wave off the action in the AXS TV-televised bout at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I.
