Riding a two-fight losing streak, Kent Kauppinen entered enemy territory in December 2018. Taking on a home crowd favorite in Italian MMA legend Alessio Sakara at Bellator 211, the chips were seemingly stacked against Kauppinen. However, in jiust 70 seconds, he quickly erased any and all doubt. The English middleweight silenced the RDS Stadium Arena in Rome when he knocked Sakara out cold at 1:10 of the first round.

Bellator London results: Melvin Manhoef survives early knockdown, outpoints Kent Kauppinen

LONDON – If you bet the over for the light heavyweight co-headliner at Bellator London, congratulations. You’re probably a big winner. And if you backed 43-year-old Melvin Manhoef to win a unanimous decision over Kent Kauppinen , the drinks are on you. That’s because few expected knockout artists Kauppinen (11-5 MMA, 1-2 BMMA) and Manhoef (31-14-1 MMA, 3-3 BMMA) to throw bombs for three full rounds and both make it to the final bell. Yet, that’s exactly what happened in a bout that saw knockdowns, takedowns and plenty of attacking threat, but ultimately no knockout finish
