BAD MMA News — Sun, 26 Feb 2023 18:07:43 +0000

Bellator returned to 3Arena in Dublin on Saturday with Bellator 291 , and with 18 fights on the docket, it played out as one of the longest events in company history. The card closed on a high note, however, when Ukraine welterweight champion Yaroslav Amosov (27-0 MMA, 8-0 BMMA) retuned to competition with a dominant unanimous decision win over Logan Storley (14-2 MMA, 9-2 BMMA) to move to 2-0 in their head-to-head series. Amosov is proving to be one of the best in the world at 170 pounds, and his flawless record is there to back up that notion. For more on the numbers behind his fight, as well as the rest of the card, check below for MMA Junkie’s post-event facts from Bellator 291.

DUBLIN – It should come as little surprise, but Bellator’s women’s featherweights are gunning for the champ. Cris Cyborg rules the roost atop Bellator’s women’s 145-pound division, but it’s been 10 months since her most recent title defense – a decision over Arlene Blencowe in a rematch in Hawaii. It was the first time Cyborg had to go to a decision under the Bellator banner after four straight finishes in title fights.

McCourt finished the fight at 2:42 with a triangle choke, which followed a rocking upkick that turned the tide dramatically. In Round 1, McCourt appeared to be the stronger fighter with better grappling.
