INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Who said Sergio Pettis can’t finish a fight? The Milwaukee native was criticized during his UFC tenure for his lack of finishing ability. But Saturday night, in the first fight of his Bellator tenure, Pettis (19-5 MMA, 1-0 Bellator) wasted little time getting the job done. A hellacious right hand sent opponent Alfred Khashakyan to the mat, and a flurry on the mat led to a finish by way of a deep guillotine choke. The time of the stoppage at Bellator 238 was 3:00

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Alfred Khashakyan plans on playing spoiler this Saturday. Khashakyan (11-4 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) takes on former UFC fighter Sergio Pettis at Bellator 238, and will also be making his promotional debut. But while most eyes are on Pettis, Khashakyan says anyone viewing him simply as a springboard for Pettis’ Bellator career is very much mistaken. “I don’t know if they think that, but I don’t know if they’ve seen my fights or not,” Khashakyan told MMA Junkie on Thursday.
