For its milestone 50th show, CES MMA crowned a new champion. CES MMA 50 took place Friday at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I., with a main card that aired on AXS TV. In the night’s headliner, Andre Ewell submitted promotional mainstay Dinis Paiva in the third round to claim the vacant bantamweight title. It was a back-and-forth battle between technical southpaw strikers, but by the third round Paiva clearly wanted to get the fight to the ground and paid the price. Paiva (11-7) shot in on Ewell (13-4) in the opening moments, which exposed his neck to Ewell, who took full advantage. Ewell locked in a D’Arce choke that left Paiva no choice but to tap out just 36 seconds into the third round
