Filed under: AXS TV Fights , News , Videos Nick Barnes got the re-set on his career he was looking for on Friday night, but he had to be wondering when he realized his fight with Chad Curry was going to be a split decision. Barnes (12-2) appeared to have handled Curry (9-2) without much concern for what the judges would say, even after he took a year off. But in the end, one of them saw the fight for Curry. Still, Barnes got the nod in the LFA 20 headliner, which took place at Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake, Minn. The main card aired on AXS TV. Check out the main-event highlights above

Women’s MMA Report: Ronda Rousey, Cris Cyborg retain titles in a combined 60 seconds

BAD MMA News — Fri, 06 Mar 2015 15:01:50 +0000

Ronda Rousey and Cat Zingano In a fight that some had expected to be her toughest to date, UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey needed just 14 seconds to retain her title on Saturday night at “UFC 184: Rousey vs. Zingano” in Los Angeles. Rousey finished top contender Cat Zingano with a straight armbar and set a record for the fastest finish in UFC championship history. The title fight between Rousey (11-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) and Zingano (9-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) was initially planned for UFC 168 in December 2013, but Zingano was forced to withdraw from both the bout and her position as a coach on “The Ultimate Fighter 18” due to injury. Fast-forward 14 months, and the top-ranked bantamweights finally met inside the octagon this past weekend. Zingano dashed forward after the opening bell and she leapt at Rousey with a flying knee.

Video: Christine Stanley lands one of the year’s best (spinning-kick) KOs

Filed under: Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos While the MMA world’s attention was focused on the UFC’s doubleheader this past weekend, what was perhaps the flashiest knockout occurred in a small show in California. At “Xplode Fight Series: Tidal Wave,” which took place Saturday in Valley Center, Calif., Christine Stanley (3-1) unloaded a vicious spinning heel kick that landed remarkably flush. Although it was apparently recorded as a five-second knockout, Stanley connected on the kick just 2.3 seconds after the bell, opponent Katie Anita Runyan hit the mat after 3.5 seconds, and the ref waved it off just under the 5-second mark. The kick, which soon made the social-media rounds, is available from another angle (via Instagram ) here: With her opponent knocked out, including the telltale signs of stiffened limbs, Stanley simply backed away after the kick and took a well-deserved bow in front of the crowd. Stanley (3-1), a Team Hurricane Awesome fighter and teammate of former UFC women’s bantamweight title challenger Liz Carmouche, has now posted first-round knockouts in all three of her recorded pro wins
