It turns out few of you were surprised by Chan Sung Jung ’s quick knockout of Renato Moicano . That’s just “The Korean Zombie” doing his thing.

Bellator 189 highlights: Did champ Julia Budd deserve this win over Arlene Blencowe?

Filed under: Bellator , News , Videos Should the Bellator women’s featherweight title have changed hands on Friday in Bellator 189’s headliner? In the Spike-televised headliner of the event, which took place at WinStar World Casino & Resort in Thackerville, Okla., Julia Budd (11-2 MMA, 5-0 BMMA) edged challenger Arlene Blencowe (10-7 MMA, 3-3 BMMA) via majority decision to defend her title. The close bout, which ended with little action in the later rounds, resulted in 46-49, 48-47 and 49-46 scores – and more than a few boo birds who thought Blencowe deserved the victory. While Bellator 189’s prelims ended with some spectacular finishes, the rest of the main card all went to decisions.

Legacy FC 46 results: Steven Peterson takes hard-fought decision over Irwin Rivera

Legacy FC 46 poster Steven Peterson and Irwin Rivera battled it out in the Legacy FC 46 bantamweight main event, bloodying each other early and continuing to bang away on the feet for much of the bout. In the end, Peterson was a bit too much for his game opponent. The shorter Rivera (4-0) attempted to pick his spots to explode in and crack Peterson (12-4) with looping punches, one of which got the blood flowing from a cut. Peterson had no intention of backing off and put Rivera on his back and used elbows to return the favor, leaving both men with cuts by the end of Round 1.

Rafael Lovato’s MMA return nearly derailed by Legacy FC 46 opponent scratch

Rafael Lovato At 32 and with just one pro fight to his credit, Rafael Lovato has no time to waste when it comes to his MMA career. That’s why, after a more than one-year layoff following his first and only MMA contest, Lovato was genuinely worried when his originally scheduled opponent for tonight’s Legacy FC 46 event fell off the card early in fight week. “Things got real scary for me after I trained hard for weeks then have this come up and it be on your mind,” Lovato told MMAjunkie Radio. “All the sacrifice physically, emotionally, financially – I brought a lot of people in for my camp and did a lot of things to feel as special as possible
