Among those who competed were former boxing champion Kubrat Pulev , former UFC champion Frank Mir , former UFC welterweight Mike Perry , former UFC welterweight Albert Tumenov , former Bellator featherweight Derek Campos , and former Bellator and UFC heavyweight contender Matt Mitrione , among others. Following the completion of their respective bouts, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), which regulated the event at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, handed out medical suspensions to all 14 competitors. Unlike some other commissioning bodies, the TDLR does not reveal the specific injuries or reasons the fighters have been suspended. While the majority of the card were given suspensions under one month, undercard fighter Angelina Hoffschneider is facing an indefinite layoff after a first-round knockout loss to Alexa Culp. Outside of the indefinite suspension, Mir, who lost via standing TKO to Pulev at 1:59 into Round 1, was handed a 30-day sanction

The hybrid boxing-MMA event with fights inside a triangular ring featured the likes of Frank Mir , Matt Mitrione , Mike Perry , Derek Campos , and Albert Tumenov – not to mention performances by Metallica, because that’s how Triller rolls. MMA legend Quinton “Rampage” Jackson said he believes Triad Combat can be a force in the industry, but what was your take? Does Triller have a hit on its hands? Our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Matthew Wells, “Gorgeous” George Garcia and Brian “Goze” Garcia answer that question with host John Morgan.

Campos earned a majority decision win over Vera at Saturday’s modified rules event at Globe Life Field, which pitted MMA fighters against boxers in a new combat sports endeavor. The 18-fight Bellator veteran did well, but a slip-up in Round 2 resulted in a point deduction and almost came back to bite him on the final cards. After landing a big punch that dropped Vera, Campos pounced and connected with a hard strike to his grounded opponent, which is illegal under the ruleset. Campos’ knockdown was taken away, and he was penalized on the scorecards. He still got the win but afterward reflected on why he made such an error.
