Rosta (8-0 MMA, 8-0 BMMA) kept his perfect record intact with a unanimous decision win over Anthony Adams (9-3 MMA, 1-1 BMMA) to open the Bellator 289 main card Friday in Uncasville, Conn. If he goes 3-0 in 2023, it would make him 11-0 – the same record his American Top Team teammate Austin Vanderford had earlier this year when he got a middleweight title shot, and the same record teammate Johnny Eblen had when he beat Gegard Mousasi to win the belt a few months later. So it’s reasonable to think an 11-0 Rosta could find himself in the title picture, especially considering he already was No.

Two champions defended their titles at the top of the card. In the main event, Raufeon Stots (19-1 MMA, 7-0 BMMA) edged Danny Sabatello (13-2 MMA, 3-1 BMMA) by split decision in their grudge match to defend interim bantamweight gold and advance to the finals of the promotion’s grand prix. The co-headliner saw Liz Carmouche (18-7 MMA, 5-0 BMMA) earn a second consecutive win over Juliana Velasquez (12-2 MMA, 7-2 BMMA), this time without controversy as she scored a second-round submission to defend women’s flyweight gold.
