The Bellator lightweight was likely on his way to a TKO victory when he threw an illegal knee that rendered opponent John Alessio unable to continue at Bellator 139. “For some reason, I thought I was going to hit his shoulder, so in my head, I’d thrown to his shoulder,” Rickels told MMAjunkie Radio. “Then I realized I’d hit his head, and then I looked at the ref, and we gave each other the look like, ‘You’re in trouble now.’” Prior to the end of the fight, which came in the first-round, Rickels (16-3 MMA, 8-3 BMMA) had peppered Alessio (35-17 MMA, 1-1 BMMA) with big shots, forcing him to cover up and take a knee. “I don’t know in what parallel universe you smash a guy until he’s laying in the fetal position and then not win the fight,” Rickels said. “I don’t understand that.” Bellator 139 took place this past Friday at Kansas Star Casino in Mulvane, Kan

But that belief didn’t stand in his way of landing a “Knockout of the Year” candidate on the kickboxing star. Schilling, one of the world’s top-ranked kickboxers, has discovered mixed results with his MMA experiment. He scored an MMAjunkie “Knockout of the Year” contender against Melvin Manhoef at Bellator 131 last year, but followed up with a disappointing split decision loss to Rafael Carvalho at Bellator 136 in April. There was a strong belief Bellator matchmakers handed Schilling (2-5 MMA, 1-2 BMMA) a favorable matchup with Kato (5-1 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) at Bellator 139 to help him rebound from the loss to Carvalho. The script didn’t play out at many thought it would, though, because Kato landed one of the cleanest Superman punches in recent memory and floored Schilling in highlight reel fashion during the second round of their middleweight bout
