HONOLULU (AP) – A Hawaii mixed martial arts fighter who pleaded no contest to a charge of assaulting his wife, UFC fighter Rachael Ostovich , has been sentenced to four years of probation. A judge sentenced Arnold Berdon on Thursday after hearing from Ostovich, who said, “I do have the power to move forward, walking in forgiveness, and I have.” Deputy Honolulu Prosecuting Attorney Robert Rawson had asked for five years in prison. Ostovich filed for a temporary restraining order in November, alleging her husband punched her in the head, face and ribs. He hit her after a night out with family and she fell to the ground, gasped for air and escaped through a balcony, according to her petition for an order of protection.

Victory FC 59 results: Champs Raufeon Stots, Yuri Villefort retain with first-round submissions

BAD MMA News — Sun, 17 Dec 2017 08:19:07 +0000

As far as birthday presents go, it probably doesn’t get much better than a first-round submission win in a championship bout. Or at least that’s what one would think, judging by defending champ Raufeon Stots ’ singing and dancing after choking out Arnold Berdon in Victory FC 59’s headlining affair, a Saturday event that streamed live on UFC Fight Pass from Baxter Arena in Omaha, Neb. Berdon (6-2) was no push-over, showing some quality striking in brief exchanges. Stots (9-1), however, was smart enough to minimize his risks and repeatedly guide the fight to where he had the control – whether it was against the cage or, ultimately, the ground. It paid off late in the first round, when a rear-naked choke proved too tight for Berdon to fight off
