Veteran heavyweight Roy Nelson got a run for his money against Jay Ayala in his Bellator debut. So he fell back on his grappling to take home the win. When Nelson (23-14 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) got too much guff from Ayala (10-6 MMA, 5-3 BMMA) on the feet, he nabbed takedowns and dominated on top. The strategy left a lasting impression on scorecards, earning him scores of 30-26, 29-28 and 29-28. The heavyweight bout aired on Spike as part of the Bellator 183 main card, which took place at SAP Center in San Jose, Calif. Prelims streamed on MMAjunkie

Watch Roy Nelson tussle with wing chun dummy ahead of Bellator 183

Filed under: Bellator , News Veteran MMA heavyweight Roy Nelson is known for three things: his beard, his belly, and his overhand right. His appearance distinguished him from the tatted, mohawked fighters typically seen in the cage. But his striking ability turned him into one of the sport’s most improbable stars – a guy who looked like he stepped off a bar stool and still could beat some of the world’s toughest fighters. Before he fights, Nelson (22-14 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) is announced as a “kung fu fighter,” which seems more like a nod to his sardonic personality than a serious affiliation.
