of the action referee Jason Herzog Jason Herzog our referee for this welterweight matchup goes all lead coming off a 45 second submission victory in Tel Aviv Israel as I said there's always grappling ability is world-class in this fight you can see him try to take the ground and Jose's gonna want to keep it on the feet Campos coming out southpaw Rosalie is a natural Southwold in our clock is brought to you by Miller Lite great chase at only 96 calories campus campus is doing a really good job of mixing it up but he cannot let ghazali get him to that page nice job knows how he backed off red gloves for the veteran I mean close ally and the blue gloves for Josie Campbell's goes all he doesn't mind if the fight goes to the ground even on his back he's dangerous on his back John know he doesn't mind in fact that's where he wants it he knows that hey if I can even just jump guard that's where I want to be I don't want to be in a stand up battle with topless Campos fighting out of San Diego by way of people in this deposition talk about pitting him against the fence getting the takedown he didn't get the position he wanted but now at least he's on the ground where he could work that submission game that he's so good at his finish in Tel Aviv was the second fastest submission finish in Bellator welterweight history you can see the difference right now Campos does not want to be on the ground you notice he's not even striking he's not doing anything offensive he's completely defensive Miami ghazali down here is a dangerous competitor he's starting to bring his feet up he needs to start getting busy in being offensive though in this position Ford - great black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu Bhansali has been with henjo Gracie for over two decades you can see referee Jason Herzog coming in and telling him I need you to be busy he's doing that because right now it goes all these guys that stalling the fight with that close guard Campos although being on top and that's exactly why Jason Stamp he is also stalling the fight in that top position because he's not going after either strikes are going after a position change that cut John will being told from the truck and accidental head butt a fight continues oh nice crotch the end you can understand why the referee didn't see it at the angle that he's at it happens in the fight game said fortunate but no farm one said cab has just walked right through midway point of the first of three scheduled five-minute rounds and you know this right here this is the way Kapil's needs to fight this fight to victory Ghazali needs to get busy when he's on if he's gonna go to the ground he's gonna go to his back you need to get busy with that submission game was a great visit to Tel Aviv the track was unbelievable back in November he's ready Batman with a huge and early submission finish he's on the defensive here though he's a hero back in Israel and he's like in the grappling arena he's the God in there but this is MMA and if we're gonna stand with some you need the standard offensive that's it good job he went to his back at least he's going to be offensive going after supper this afternoon those salaries to Bellator winds have both been by first-round submission with those only had problems in the one loss here at Bellator fighter couldn't have the recipe tutorial he's better at submission but the wrestling game stall all of the submission damn folks trying to score from the top steps away you see he did not close his guard had an open guard and tapas his images back on get right back up and get to the position that he wants to be damn posed with one professional victory in depth was by first-round knockout third back to forge so far right over Big John McCarthy inside the fabulous forum in Inglewood California he's always get a little frustrated with what's going on here you can see he's dropping his hands he's turning his head down he needs to start to think about changing angles and becoming more offensive in the stand-up so topless gets forced back into that cage talked about the two Bellator victories horizontally has finished all eight of his career wins in round number one I'm taking away his only right now if you live in these fires 44 years of age compared the 20s on years pitch that is a difference he's breathing out of his mouth he start the gas a little bit and it's only gonna get worse from here he doesn't have the ability to change this position you see him working on the cut John it was from as we mentioned earlier this accidental head butt yeah that's that's completely unintentional but what it does is it makes it to where if the fight does get stopped because that cut even if it's a hit that makes it larger in the future it's going to go to either none what we call no contest or a technical decision to by the judges it's not going to be a TKO victory for him solid ground to read grounds for Heimdall zombie boobs for Jose temples campuses corner was telling him I want lateral movement out of it that's exactly what he needs to do switching stance here that he needs to instead of just becoming that straight ahead fighter take angles because he's faster than easily and that speed is what kills most excited living in San Diego to be on such a big night for Bellator MMA nice inside leg kick he goes takes him down to that point right here work don't sit here and just stand on the gonna let him stand up but if you're gonna be pressing me to start working and didn't busy with him those ideas were mentioned 43 years old with his son of he begins tonight using his former back to in Tel Aviv in November connected there have you seen that but the digit to the step ghazali is starting to Andrew coming down side punches are starting to loop in that's something the Capitals can take advantage of with this lateral movement and just taken and utilizing straight punches he's for the Dinkas all of the crowd fatigue is the reason we're seeing exactly right there you just saw he saw the pit set up that was coming so I was going to spinning kick and instead of attacking it he just kind of backed off and that's a problem trying to sneak one in there we'll get a little bit of the spinning back fist at temples liked it goes all heat over-the-top kicks from temples all these pics are slowing down there's always ability moving its gonna start taking a toll as you're getting in the last half of the second into the third round those add up they make the difference Superman punch in it laughs and again with the kick body shot is rock right now tempos needs to be smart is bacon [ __ ] get up whoo jackal right back after Big Shot landed by Jose eight apples you can see if those all he still is not on solid legs and a lot of that has to do with the punch and someone else do with those leg kicks that he's taking midway point of the fact Pappas is so unsure is all yeast slowing down his off it's not because he's tired not because Gonzales giving anything that's giving a problem he just doesn't want to end up underneath it from votes ollie so zolly has only been to the judges sport bar once and 12 professional fighters got a long way before we go there though it's got some distance to go but he's got to get busy if he wants to win on a judges scorecard because right he's starting to get handles nice body shot nice right hand to the body that's gonna take more steam out of it [Music] you know you know Mike you take a kick like that people go oh it's gonna be good it's like getting hit with a baseball bat it hurts and it affects the way you can move and we always talked about Pedro Rizzo Randy Couture is the damage that Randy took even though he won the fight from Pedro the rock kids on those heavy attacks and Randy Fisher will tell you I did not walk right after that final leg kicks people look at probably doesn't feel good it's horrible damn post look to spin their campus for a guy coming into this one run fight he's been very impressive in being very controlled he's controlling the fight he's controlling the distance he's controlling a veteran fighter and a guy who's very dangerous and he's being slowed down by his commitment in underneath this guy but he's doing a great job for a young father big heavy left leg kick there those are Lissa Jenna Marshall you know some of that was hit on the leg but he did connect with our right hand Mike yeah 30 seconds on the clock here in round 2 job controlling both legs on you trying to go to side control but right now ghazzal he's doing a good job framing out look what he's doing with his feet what he's doing with his arm taking some heavy shots in 15 turn your eyes away from your opponent for Campos look at right here beautiful right hand hits him flush comes back kick this is a guy you know with one fight to his credit right now this is a guy who is doing a beautiful job nice fricking left right and that's solid and that puts Ghazali down nice right hand coming down hit him with some big hammer fist this is what he needs to do to win this fight on your scorecard what do you have a touch far oh he is right now it's easy this is two rounds to nothing Jose Campos is winning this fight goes all he needs to do something special to take it away no than final round five minutes remain bully four-year-old time bullseye and we're talking about you I need to do something he's actually trying to do that right now by by taking the center of the cage by moving forward by pushing campus against the cage this is what he needs to do to try to be successful capitalist does a good job laterally moving out now he's the one that's in the Senate goes all he spends a lot of time training in the New York City area with pencil Gracie this just his second pro fight though in the US the first one was at Madison Square Garden last year not a bad place to have ran their first fight in u.s. Madison Square Garden but you watch all that training with hen zou cannot take place unless you get this fight to the ground and he's got to do something he's got to either set up a takedown change levels get him against the fence he cannot stand in the middle of the cage and just stand there and trade he's gonna win this fight the jab good shot my Campos in another one got those beaten smart trying to control a position steps back out that smart fighter this [ __ ] guy that understands I'm not gonna play another man's game I'm gonna make him play mine Campos has done that a number of times in this fight he has keeps on trying and land that overhand right now he does the best part of it he's throwing it straight down the pipe it's good shorter distance and power behind it he's hurt Forbes ollie in trouble here three minutes on the clock third and final round got to be impressed that Campos is not resting on the fact that he won those first two round he's still going after his all he's trying to do stuff that's gonna finish this fight one thing they would help campus if he would start to hide those pics behind his hands throw his hands then bring the kick and he can bring the kick up because the Wiggles all he's dropped his hands that clink is there for him if he burns ooh again let me get there's some nice combinations going down to the body utilizing straight punches you got to impress where the young guy and impose a campus one professional fight coming in against an experienced veteran like Uncle John he's controlling this fight is controlling the range the distance it's really an impressive performance from a very young fighter very composed twenty-eight-year-old controlling the pace of this fight right look he's doing yeah come here we're gonna fight this well attended to Center in the ring he's making ghazali fight his fight [Applause] Superman punch didn't land solid nice right hand over the top those Ollie's work and now he's trying he needs to come forward and needs to get Campos in a position where he's neither avoiding the punch and he can change levels on or hit him against the fence where he can utilize some of the throws he's he's very good at tried the head kick a moment ago as I mentioned he's only been to the judges scorecards once in 12 fights there's a good chance he's gonna be going to judge the scorecards key right now if he's doing nothing that's gonna end this fight it's not blowing the pilot he doesn't have a lot of power left at him he's fired he's been hurt alive he's in a position right now he needs to get do something to get this fight in a position where he can win it that best chance is him getting Campos to the ground right goes on Lee just fought 65 days ago it was only 45 seconds he got the win as we mentioned earlier play back-to-back training camps are very difficult especially when you're 44 years in you know one thing you gotta look there is no quit look at that leg look at his right leg look at the abuse that is taken he is absolutely losing this fight but there's no quit in him he's still going after he's still trying that's 44 years of age in a match like this against a young guy he's doing everything he can got a got a respect on big swinging to miss late and they go the distance really impressive fight by a young fighter and Jose Campbell's a guy that doesn't have a lot of experience record wise but man you came in here he absolutely did the right things that he technically needed to do to win this fight control Pistons control the stand up didn't go to the ground much Wertheim Cazale beautiful fight there's your head but you see when they come in on that's this them coming together it ends with a head cut the cut was taken care of by the cut man nice right hand over the top left hook to the kick back with the punches beautiful left hook that lands and puts him down all of this is stuff from a young fighter the way he controlled his emotions and took his time you have to be impressed with that performance the official decision is in here is Michael C Williams ladies Devon haven't gone the distance we'll go to your three judges at cage side Jackie Dinkin Chris Craig and Rob McCarthy all three see the fight exactly the same 32:27 I'll have it for the winner by unanimous decision still congratulations to Jose Campos as he takes out the Israeli Batman Haim goes Ali our tale of the tape brought to you by Dave & Buster's the only place to eat drink play and watch sports 20 year old Connery Gracie John making his professional debut both of these guys Devin Brock and Connery making their professional debut but if you're looking at it Connery Gracie's got the weight of the world on his shoulders because of who his father is fathers voice gracie but he does not fight in a similar fashion hoist other than he does fight very relaxed Connery Gracie Devon Brock with the official introductions Michael C Williams ladies and gentlemen tonight from the fabulous forum in Inglewood hellotalk MMA now presents three five-minute rounds in the welterweight division introducing the blue corner at five foot nine weighing in 166 pounds even tonight making his professional debut he fights out of Los Angeles California dangerous Devon and across the cage his adversary tonight fights out of the red corner at 6-foot he weighed in 169 pounds even the iconic name and the legacy continues tonight as he makes his professional debut fighting [Music] see the man in charge of the action your referee Mike and Ron white built Ron our referee a little bit of experience standing behind Connery Gracie there his uncle Hoyle er Roderigo and his father hoist yeah a little bit DISA larious time to be a dad right now and watch your son and look at the family tree the Gracie name of course John it all started with Ellie oh it did start with Ellie oh and he brought a system out that has changed the martial arts as we go here we go tonight's fight clock brought to you by Miller Lite great taste and over 96 calories there one of the things gonna see with Connery he does like to stand up and fight he does extend his left hand out on top he always has that right hand high in chamber Devon Brock is gonna want to fight on his feet he is gonna do everything he can to that's where he feels he has the ability to win Connery Gracie and the red gloves Devon rocked in the blue gloves making their professional debut you look at what's going on right now this is two young guys trying to feel each other out trying to seal that distance it's gonna start to go if this is that beginning then focusing only on mixed martial arts the last three years Conor Gracie for a long time was all about soccer he was very good at it even he said you know what somebody's got to take over the family business I'll go ahead and do it taking over the family business sometimes that's not an easy job to do you're like he was a very good soccer player witness but sons he was 17 he's been big time in jiu-jitsu didn't his entire life growing up but took it super serious when he got to 17 he is a very good grappler Devin broca's knows that and I everything that I've seen out in Prague I've watched his fights in the amateurs he was 500 in the amateurs he is a guy that goes out there and swings let me brother he doesn't have that one punch power he does have multiple punch power Connery said that it was his decision his father never forced him which he really appreciates looking back no regrets hoping to go 2-1 and old that's a professional here tonight inside the fabulous forum yeah and the way you know look at hoist the way he does thing is he tried to make everything fun for his son all of his kids he never made it where we got to go to jiu-jitsu it was - Jitsu is play and you make it fun three kids then it becomes something that's enjoyable and that's the way Tommy grew up when we visited with Connery a couple of days ago Big John Boyce was there you know proud papa was there and we let Connery do his thing but didn't he talked about the sword and it was a cool story said though sometimes you just have to watch the guys utilize the sword and it's not your turn yet there's been a lot of swords utilized in the Gracie lineage yeah you mean he's talking about looking you know you look at hoist he's a knight you know he's like a knight from the medieval times and the son is a guy that was there that man draw the sword to him and he brought Frank the soit's changing hands good job by Connery good pressures got the other head what he's looking for right now just that brush nobody can look at Devin's gonna do everything he can to get out of this position right now he's grabbing shorts back to the lead foot but the revs not seeing it robberies doing a good job maintaining that trench right now his that just hit 200 you could tell it stung it that's why he's moving back let's white new police I got them on top that was a mistake that was a good job like that they brought the valleys got the fight on the ground here's where he has a distinctive down close guard Henry Gracie and again this is that point where look you got to fight down here open up the guard start to attack this guy because you can look at them abroad he's doing nothing also and that's the time that the referee when the guy on top is basically just stalling the fight he's gonna stand it up if the guy in the bottom is staying in the stick position right here with the crows garden and Brock was trying to get out of it we are free to go to go out moving towards each other it's not fair it needs to grab that she'll bleed it down behind that name one minute on the clock in round number one areas started rather you still see that space that space equals escape needs a new days it's not as tight as it needs to be brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under his father hoist mark muñoz with the lock with con me make me with his wrestling Devin Brock had his arm the position really protecting said he needs to be careful and let that arm get across right now Tommy's got nothing but a high guard there's no submission attempt right here he was trying with the triangle but nothing is there at this moment [Applause] this is a mention of the Russian Gracie's got a tip boxing with stitch em up Joe silly good finish here in round one by Devin drop the fight continues back on refresh zoom in the red gloves Devin rock in the blue gloves round to see what Connery tries to be here early and spend a lot of the end of round number one on his back look that was a safe position to be in he wasn't getting hit but it was also a good thing for Devin Brock because Brock now knows I'm okay down here I didn't get submitted I'm still here so more comfortably about his ability not me to open up a little bit five an old amateur record for Devin Bahr one win by count one win by submission [Applause] timer equation calls the moment of truth came three years ago it was going to play collegiate soccer woo or start a fight career he chose the latter look at wonder laundry keeps on dipping with what he's doing is it's feigning that I might take you down I might shoot for that double leg try to set up rock in the center of the cage nobody really starting to get an advantage here in round number two where's that extended left handed that's a real similar thing that his father used to do it you watch with the extended left hand but the cop is really good that right hand stays up high protecting himself from Gracie there's a lot of his boxing training at Freddie Roach is place so he is surrounded by the right people if he is going to become great at this the iniative is coaches it doesn't get anything raus to fight scheduled for three five-minute rounds to take control of the slide he's the one that's dictated the pace in the position and Audrey needs to break trying to establish the jab he split jabs there John it was but the job that got stepping in and throwing that with intent and that intent is getting through poise his last fight was in the Bellator cage against Ken Shamrock for a third time we won that the first round with that TKO the knee the punches congri was in his corner for that fight he was if you're looking here again there's Connery setting up that faint Connery needs to start to move his feet he's skating flat-footed when you start to get flat-footed you start to see just stop everything you're doing movements gonna help him feel better start to bounce up and down and start to pump that jab and make Devon Brock have to work at defending what's competitive Gracie trying to score here in round number two you're gonna be a lot better trying to be offensive and make guys start to defend what you're doing didn't you are by just sitting there and fading and then letting them throw it we asked Connery Gracie about his one not amateur fight and he said the biggest thing that caught him by surprise the there was a big difference between practice and playing we might play when we fight but when you're in this cage and it's a real fight the intensity is indescribable unless you've been the old saying game speed game speed is very fast and sometimes it's so fast you've never seen final mentor ground to Devon Brock ended round number one in top position we did but Devon Brock again I think he learned a lot off of that first round in you look at what he's doing he's the one that's still controlling the pace of this fight he's the one that's dictating where the fights gonna be and he's the one that's Manning the better blows [Music] rakh take the shot there a moment ago [Applause] [Music] con ree Gracie red gloves Devon we are underway five minutes remain Devon bronze corner games very good advice yet told him you know what this is an even fight but you are the one that's setting the pace good easy absolutely having problems with your power keep doing what you're doing go forward fighting here inside the fabulous forum in Inglewood California it's tough it's hard to describe for people the pressure that both of these guys are under in this pro debut this means so much to them and to be in front of all these people this is a new experience don't forget live and free on paramount Network nine East eight central what he card we have rampage in jail first fight of the Heavyweight Grand Prix there's that movement that's good what you're seeing out of Cartman he needs to start moving those feet that's gonna set up the clean punch with a clean kick for him to land [Applause] [Music] somebody's got to take over here soon there's not a whole lot going on this is one of those will you throw first I'll throw each guy is actually looking to count you've got to initiate you got to go after all trying to get to take town that's nice but if you're gonna get to take down there you've got that high underhook you can change that hook to go for lot W with your other hand down low or bring both hands up for a body long we played soccer for over 10 years he said at that time jiu-jitsu was a hobby yeah it's the family business but that was secondary to it is obviously primary now as he makes his professional MMA debut here against Devon Brock that chick you saw right there where both of them kicked at the same time those shins clash I can tell you that does not feel good that you checking the kick is better than taking a kick but it doesn't mean it doesn't look exactly Audrey Gracie needs to start utilizing the lateral move and he's stepping straight back but Devon comes out of he's going straight back that's never a good position swinging in this fight blah thanks picking up here just past the midway point of the third and final round takedown he's getting his these knobs that she's the only guy that can do that is Jordan burrows Jordan burrows has the Russkies feel to hit his knees and get the takedown Kadri doesn't he's got to drive through his palm under 2-minutes now as gracie moved in trying to get a takedown he took a lot of punches he's taken the damage right now he's got to start getting busy and giving it back or debit Brock's gonna take this fight from him you mentioned earlier Devin Brock five and always an amateur looking to earn the victory in his professional debut fighting out of Los Angeles you can see the Devon Devon's athletic and that's what's getting him out of these problems that technique-wise got to happen here one minute remains right now neither fighter is doing a very good job of helping our judges in frigging around who they're going to be giving this fight to the less action there is it's actually harder to judge that fight see if there's a sense of urgency in the final 30 seconds from both fighters see the water you look at a convict Connery's flowing once and you can't wines and will smooth the power like a Roy Nelson with the right hand quit Jackson you've got to throw combinations final seconds of the fight and Gracie over distance tonight's fight replay brought to you by Black Card Premium spice from the full value free proof from that's edgy to the core look at that nice uppercut by Brock there this was the chance the Gracie had when he had him on the ground but he wasn't able to complete the triangle that once he got it set up went for the armbar didn't work judges rendering their decision could jab utilize throughout the fight by Brock again you see the double jab landing there John right hand and he covered quite a few times and that's the difficulty was getting hit he start to turn away from it we've got to respond Michael C Williams with the official decision ladies and gentlemen we go the distance inside the Bellator cage from mironov official judges scorecards Marco schools at least scores hit 32 27 well judges Chris trail and Jackie Dinkin both seeing the same 29 to 28 I'll have it for the winner by unanimous decision

with the steel finding out a Hollywood but born in Belo Horizonte Brazil VH - steel fighting out of anything out of it foolish men with significant experience in swinging a myth the big difference you've seen in their experience is just who they fought and where they found Castillo's got more fights but it's in lower level organizations with lower level fighters than what Palmer's than against bomba fighting for the fourth time inside the Bellator cage Bellator debut for Castillo the chance of cold sauce it's always good when you got it absolutely makes you feel good [Music] bumpers gym back in Brazil the each rhinos the H for Belo Horizonte good combination it's the position over the head nice trip takes it back smart fighting right now this is the position where Bamba has a huge experience difference Castillo likes to fight the stand-up bombas got a very tight ground game right now it's at a wrestling ride Bamba needs to just control that leg keep that leg up off of the ground that'll help him keep the steel down 20 watts 52 minutes into this swing round fight good job of Casteel to get back to his feet he's already got that arm he needs to swing that on the right side of bomba so he can set her up get to a 50/50 position right quick shot as they clinch and right there you see he made a mistake his mistake was he should have brought that arm down and underneath instead he brought it over the top of the head and that's what all those ever done back to the ground we're trying to posture up and do some damage here early 27 year-old Ivan Castillo 31 year old very tough position when a guy gets in half guard and has you up against the page you've got to think about where you're gonna go if you're Castille if he's gonna try to trade punches right now he's gonna be on the losing side because he can't generate the power that belt with Chad being in the top position [Music] [Applause] I can't see it bombed my eyes what we were taught in lace on that bottom part he does you can see that he's got a lace on the bottom of that he came very close to hitting on the head but he's got his arm that left arm of Castillo's is trapped under his body by what gme bumble was doing good pressure here the ground-and-pound by Baumbach this is if you're an MMA fighter this is called dirty fighting on the ground this is slowly disintegrating what to steal to dupe it's a slow process of just putting it in positions where he's taking one more again almost has the full mouth and now he's gotta untie the trunk it's tight it's he's got it to the side and finish it was gonna finish it as tight he needs to stay where'd that keep his hips dog looking to finish the fight by submission without withstanding [Applause] John one she got the position it was just the beginning of the end it was exactly what he needed to do to be successful in the fight be smart you take up all elements and when we talk about that that position when he made the mistake of grabbing over the head that's what led to everything you saw take a look at the finish our black our premium spiced rum replay the bold 93 proof rum that's edgy to the core nice job here gets to the side that arm triangle is tight what he wants to do is as he squeezed to keep those hips down because Steel's trying to raise his hip to relieve pressure he's putting his hand in a position where we're gonna say always trying to use the phone it's too tight you eventually can't get out of it there goes the raise up again and the pressures too much he taps out Castillo was a gamer man he was

boxing so he's very confident in his striking ten seconds on the fight now public would offer cuts good finish in the round for the battle continues round three Georgia car Vanya has got to start to solve the riddle of hidden Perales at this point I believe is two rounds down and he needs to do something special in this round if he wants to take this fight how do you score it so far right now I've got the first round and the second round $10 for Henry Perales he's just been the more effective fighter out there definitely finished round two with a flurry job he's got a couple marks on his face so he's getting hit but she's the one that's dictating the pace this fight he's dictating my location of the fight those are the things that get you that read when we spoke with Henry Corrales he mentioned that his last two fights were for no cloak on TV he's happy to be backed and motivated looking for a potential finish here in round three [Music] [Applause] Perales we're two straight wins over Cody Bollinger and no I'd blow hot car honey and John and Corrales have been on the same card this would be that the third they say they're fighting each other they've been on the same side of

again with those ones Georgie needs to start to set things up and get after and he's gotta start throwing more than one excuse it right from those punches that's when the tips come in cuz you're gonna hide they're gonna be effective in scoring against Yemeni ptarmigan landed that spinning heel kick Curran broke three ribs punctured his liver champion impact Kern was able to hold on might get his arm bridge you can see that Henry Corrales keeps on shaking his right hand I'm not sure if he hurt his hand but he keeps rolling it but he keeps on shaking that hand a little bit might be that he landed that on Georg's head or some other part of his body in his hearse keep an eye on it blue gloves foot for Alice our honey and in the red chucks past the midway point of the third and final round good counter left Corrales grew up just 15 miles from the fabulous forum here in Inglewood California paralysis find the exact fight he wanted to come in he said look I want to stand with him I want to make sure that he can't take me down good level change good drive into the fence and see if any crowds can stop this takedown digging that on your hook by digging you see that all come up beautiful job by Henry cross his defensive wrestling has improved dramatically and credit dad - his move to Arizona in the last two years under the tutelage of John crouching company now when you got guys like Benson Henderson and all them inside the cage trying to take you down day after day you either learn to survive as you get out every Cross has learned how to survive that good frame that he's using his arm against George's face is still digging it's got the only work of his left arm that's as good on their head he just has to be careful George you swab his head up and going towards his back final minute of the fight and the knees the charges throw those work but they're not gonna end the fight for him so he needs to start picking up getting extra busy and going after Henry now I change that goes to Santa leg this is why he's suspending me dropping down to his knees he's not gonna end up dead that pitch the leg up he's got the backside of that leg in his hand that's could've control

Bellator fans want the same gear the fighters wear how about a fade or bobble head head to Bellator shop calm now for all your official Bellator MMA merge Michael Chandler Koichi Yamaguchi by round two one of the things Michael Chandler's known for is how fast and fight sometimes it puts a little bit tired but if he's gonna fight show my fingers right not to do this all day boy to user utilizing

hair really good Moochie was telling us his family and he basically they built a new fighting system and we said that with jinjo Machida a few months back looked in to utilize all the Kings right here there's the take down Big Big John we figured would happen yeah and look at you cannot blame Michael and this is gory is he's waiting for it Micah needs to do the same thing hip position is super important right now keep his hips in line with deutsches hips keep the pressure on him bring his head over the top he does that there's no submission boys she's gonna get Bellator twins for Boise 6 by submission won by knockout won by decision be careful his Bellator debut back in 2013 was his first fight here in the States it's got a beautiful elevator hook to try to reverse the position Chandler's hips are just too strong too heavy midway point up our flight former two-time champion on top Yahoo cheats all of us this is the most important fight of my career he did say that but he actually thought the Chandler is losing there's a fighter who doesn't think he's absent prescient now as he was in the past now he's starting to feel a little bit of what Michael Chandler is life feels that way or not probably better to keep that to yourself yeah absolutely like Michael Chandler needs any more motivation notice that head position see how his head is over the top actually to deliver power that's where you can do things that can end this fight that is great ground-and-pound tactics by Michael Chandler good control here the latter part of this round Yamauchi the body shot earlier Yamaguchi's got a camera grip on Michaels left arm but in the position that he's at he's not going to pull that out in the is actually keeping you from being able to extend that out you see Michael's left leg blocking the ability for us to bring that arm out [Music] when she's trying to get that elevator hooked with his left leg inside there he goes trying to swing around the challenge not delivering good rabbit pound look at that's what you do when the guy's going through submission it doesn't work I'm gonna make you pay for that submission 13 of 16 wins have come by finish or Chandler Yamaguchi looking for his third straight win pardon me fourth straight win inside the Bellator cage now Michael Chandler is bringing this round back into his corner he got hurt early that was a big thing but he's starting to land some really solid impressive shots here either starting to diminish boys his ability to get that submission from where he's out 20 seconds all kinds of cage control here in round 2 for channel page controllers do the thing we're looking for we're looking to see who's damaging who and right now my channel is going to put some damage on Big John those are

flush on Michael Chandler's right side of his face jaw you see Michael stumbling back that would have put a lot of people down good fight between two of the best at 155 third and final round five minutes remain red gloves for Chandler blue for Yamauchi and the fans say who knew that Yamauchi could strike Yamauchi and his team did some dive he's got that Machida lanky straight up karate style big wide stance effective with the any hurts guys he makes them starting to get for those things out talking to train and prepare for a guy like John Petrucci and of course the other Machida the best Houston high replication mic also added a big kick to the body he's just knows what he wants to do he takes his time he doesn't force things got to be impressed with the way this guy fights Chandler definitely the aggressor thus far during the third and final round got a bit of an eye poke from the defensive just came off this is the this is what could happen when you've got a guy like Mike whose needs to cut inside Yamaguchi's trying to keep him to the outside him in command as he starts to counter what Mike's doing that hand comes out fingers poke right in the eye doesn't poke him bad but got to give a guy a chance to get himself back to where he's a hundred percent accidental it's an accident no worries come over here for me [Music] you ready let's go the battle continues Yamaguchi comes right out with a kick puts a smile on the face of a former two-time champion they're talking they're talking to each other now I was like oh really you want to do that that's that pass okay is anybody's fight John you know what right now I believe do you think to close this out because shots so please go from here it's gonna be the submission they're three minutes on the clock third and final round Michael Chandler would rather just forget that sweet dead leg injury from Madison Square Garden what he does him want to forget very long those Bellator gold well Michael Tanner lost his

play tapes and only 96 calories blue gloves for the Challenger red gloves for the champion very impressive what you see from uh establishing that distance right over those seem Douglas Lee towards offense that's a good tell right there chants amore but some Canadian fans in the house near inside the fabulous forum Roy McDonald the last man in town Woodley to the fans I'm thinking about this one and just like you said they are ready right now Warren Donald is doing exactly what he wants to do must establish that distance establish his jab established that he's the dominant fighter he said to us more than once John the formula is clear I have a clear path to gaining the belt and he felt that same way in his fight against Paul Daley well in fear if you're watching him right now just look in his body language he's loose he's relaxed he's calm this is what you want to be when you're in that cage it's hard to do but he has the experience now to make that happen Lima trying to circle out of danger here second career title fighters we mentioned for McCallum where he did a good job of closing this is went for a single egg brought it up to where now he's got it under it we got the 50/50 position it's even for both fighters even though his back was against the cage Douglass Lima just turned 30 years old on January 5th tonight his 36th professional fighting fight together for five five-minute rounds you know the one thing that Rory told us Mike was that he had a clarity about fighting and what he was supposed to do that is exactly what he was demonstrating right now in this round he's not he's not dominating this round that's not what's occurring but he is controlling the fight where it's at and how it is going to play out Rory said of his longtime head coach David Lea we have a great relationship who started me he knows me better than anybody he also said that coach Lee is one of the most open-minded and dynamic coaches in the game well like we talked about he has to be when he's letting his best student leave him to go somewhere else because he knows that's what's best for me [Applause] he waited on that david course cable was got a response from douglas and went with it that's why i got into the ground both fighters black belts in Brazilian Jujitsu Lima earned his in 2014 from want an arrow shook up if you're Douglas Lima in this position you notice again boy bringing that head right over the top of his head you're Douglass leaving this position neither is blowing and looking for that submission saying I okay that's not what I'm looking for I'm gonna go for a reversal or I'm gonna get out of here and get an escape but you cannot stay here with a closed guard that close guard right now is totally defensive there's no submission he convicting this position with roryd posture julia's that's not going to happen he's got to open those legs to start to become an offensive item Rory has yet to be submitted in his professional career couple of Kos Lawler Condit into by decision big right hand by rotor right there that that's what's going to wear your opponent down systematically just diminishing their abilities it was the four losses the setbacks if you will for MacDonald close guard utilized by the champion nice hammer fist coming up but those are the things that they're never going to end the fight the can annoy his opponent it can get bored to think about having to stop him but Lima right now needs to start opening up his guard and attacking or making water be the defensive fighting Douglas Lima said he worked diligently on his wrestling and jiu-jitsu because he knew those challenges would be presented in the form of [ __ ] in the diamond world brings so many elements of the game that's his ability to transition from one to the other that makes him so difficult to work against 20 seconds fight scheduled for five five-minute rounds Jason Herzog stands him up round one is in the books [Music] ductless Lima Rory MacDonald the crown funny ready funny run tonight my eighth time the Phenom has been scheduled for a five-round fight this is for vibe round Fighter boring MacDonald's careers round one what to score as well doc that's a wrap as the score but what we need to see is right now Leamas not fighting his fight Rory's the one controlling this fight Leamas landing a very good lord kick that low kick to the shin is it's deadly because it deadens your leg and needs to continue to do that against Rory to slow him down excited to be here back at the fabulous forum look for the first time Bellator MMA on paramount Network and what is here we have in store for you rampage in jail the first two of the great eight to fight in a heavyweight tournament the Heavyweight Grand Prix that's right touches the leg John the most Tina yeah both fighters are throwing a lot of fades to the moon he threw that kick Rory catches big boy took a lot of shots holding on to that leg that's not smart fighting by either [Applause] fighters Big John over the years power oh man he has power he but no one seems to get the praise of Douglas Leeman when they said John they have power no no no he's got ultra power it does you could hear even when Rory was in his corner he looked this good skills he's really strong he's a strong big fighter and he's good this right here is the type of fight why you're seeing Rory fight the way he is pinching up it's because he wants to slow Douglas down he doesn't want to get hit by that power Lima said I'm here to finish fights bad intentions you hit like Douglas Lima you could lose every round and one shot is going to put that win in your category people need to remember this is a wrong fight 25 minutes you don't need to win it in the first round who can win it all the way with the 25 minutes into the last one you mean like that dude man Kendall double underhooks for McDonald right now the referee is not suffering because Rory MacDonald hasn't been she's got double underhooks that's an advantageous position he's just going to see this on me with just past the midway point of brown number two of our title fight showing the jab again and again let's I'm sorry Johnny Lima in the red that's a good job that Rory's throwing out there you can see that it's stopping what Douglass is doing so even when it's not hitting him it's causing Douglass a problem Tristar is team Channel yeah well I think that got back from different states to here yeah that guy he used that thing just a little bit GSP a big fan as well as teammate Lavoie McDonald really took him under his wing welcome to Vin de Montreal training with that guy every day is going to make you better [Music] tonight two main events next week we moved to Temecula the Riverside Zone Lorenz Larkin and the menifee maniac for now have Gonzalez go toe-to-toe +10 load the spider Grove takes on a Jim Matthews its Bellator MMA next Friday at 9:00 live on paramount Network now right now we just take time we got a low blow we got a kick that ended up because the fighter move it ends up hitting to the groin there it wasn't intentional he's trying to he's coming in and that changes the distance as Lori's bringing up a ball kick to the midsection it's accident intentional it all kick but it's still hit stuck looks in a bad spot and Douglas now has up to five minutes to recover from it one thing partner and you said it twice you mean the ball of their foot find out anywhere you're saying the world my dream kitchen table battle continues this is the technique right here that war use a lot hit that underhook with his right side and they'll hook the leg the most spit himself drawing the fighter down he's very good with it really technical with him doesn't like he's doing a lot but he is he's putting a lot of pressure on Douglas making Douglas work he did say David Lee huh bottom estate when he welcomed young Rory MacDonald into Tristar and much like we're talking about the nail in the hammer earlier John Ross said he came back and the next day and the next day the big pumps and easily get you right back to that same position a good job of changing him putting Leela's back to the fence he's got double-under hips again he's got an advantage let's see what he does with final seconds of round two the Bellator welterweight World Championship still to come one of the sports most charismatic figures one of the sports most feared fighters Quinton Rampage Jackson takes on the one the only jail son and first fight of our Heavyweight Grand Prix route 3 [Music] that's the best technique that Douglas Leeman has used today is that low kick to that [ __ ] you can even see take a look at Laurie's shin area it's starting to swell up Benson Henderson one of the players to utilize that he just missed with that uppercut just was strong hits falling down stops to tear it down come back get out of the clinch who took round two rubber guard kickbacks and he's up to Dobbs of nothing right now on the chin Douglas Leeman needs to start to push his game and start to dominate what is happening in his cage Ryan Hughes got the good under the work only on one side but he can start to get busy even if it's the positions on the place this fight two-time Villa tour welterweight world champion Douglas Lima on the red Bryce wearing McDonald's last title flight was back in the UFC against ruthless Robbie Lawler one of the greatest back and forth battles in MMA history well even that fight right there you Rory showed just how tough he is yeah but that might have been part of the problem with it is he wanted to show up I wasn't ready ways city used to put a lot of pressure on himself tonight he just wants to flow and leave with the bull [Applause] [Music] they break their you know an advocate with it there's a double attempt he has got great hips it's given that he's gonna get the takedown nicely done with wrestling showcase by Rory MacDonald close guard even going back to that close guard because it doesn't want Rory to pass but he's gonna have to start to open this up because if he sits in this positioning guard he's gonna end up losing this round and he's John mentioned he very likely is down two rounds to love thus far midway point of our championship fight mr. wonderful he's liking it likes the action this was the flight John everybody was talking about the minute there Rory MacDonald signed with Bellator yeah everyone looked at you no worries the guy coming from he is the young fighter school his best days are ahead of him and then look at him man I can't wait to see Douglas Lee more against were that goggle boy came in one fight against Paul Daley looked phenomenal deliveries left the other organization I'm gonna go Woody Hayes on you I'm gonna say that school up Lord get that screw up standing up again this is dick for the Trina [Applause] so so far Lima on his back his guard John has been very good he hasn't taken a lot of punishment at all there's that itch again it's landing and it's doing damage you can take a look at that left leg corner ghana world is damaged it was scarred to make him not be able to move his fluidly and that left leg ultra important when you're stepping into that indeed jab well they're just this little subtle thing you're seeing right now look at who's going forward look at who's going back here's that change this is what Douglas Leeman needs to do to that kick again from the champion it's fast it's strong it hits with our got to be careful if you're wearing MacDonald a question mark kick Lima aiming low and he comes over the top his leg you see there damage [Applause] [Music] I just need that I need to hit this bite on this opponent systematically break down your opponent that's exactly what he's doing a lot of times you're looking at five to go while you're losing this your business it looks like don't look at you go I know there's a lot of time in this fight an elbow for the champion take a look at boring McDonald's knows that nose might be broken again that was the nose that was exploded in the fight against Lawler you're watching Bellator MMA for me go with California been here doctor he's got a massive hematoma on it we need to get him [Music] first-first I get off first Big John much like the quarters cockfight vicious leg kicks from the Phenom this is what he's doing to start to systematically break Lori down Rory was hurt look at I'm not saying that he can't continue the fight but trust me that leg is not going to help him with the rest of his fighting gonna be tough to plant him immediately looks for the takedown [Applause] this Lima started to kill it on animals a reason why kiss championship rounds like boulders Big John McCarthy this long mile for the champ this is a bad place for one God before mount with Douglas Lima Black Dog jiu-jitsu on top you ever a lot of time Douglas Leamas last submission win was two thousand six hundred and twenty six days ago you can see from this angle the damage on the shin the left shin of Rory MacDonald look at those are the things that start to make it to where you can't stand you can't push off you use the power that you have right now Douglas Lima although I'm not saying he's not even trying to go to submissions he's just going to systematically we're lowering down but it might be a good thing because of these words about getting hit on that leg Zima last earned a submission shun in November of 2010 seven years plus that going in with a triangle armbar he fell in love with the knockouts he's gone to that but right now in this position he's riding very hot very what he's gotta move his hips he's gotta start there it goes it gets him back to half guard nice job of putting himself for a better position by were McDonald where he's never been submitted third straight five-round fight for Lima four of his last five scheduled for 25 minutes the momentum just went poof to the other direction to the side of the Brazilian dude yeah and it was the one that was that one tick that I have sudden swept Rory MacDonald you knew Johnny you talked about it damage damage damage and then it was WOW extreme damage this is what we've told people this is why we fight the fight you can sit there and give all with all the things about well I think visitor I think that it doesn't mean anything let's put them in the cage and let's find out or haven't gone back to a full guard now close garden I don't know if Jason who's I didn't have any babies here I was gonna say the same damn [ __ ] to this co-op Cory's kind of in the southpaw stance and tried to walk Lehmann down there Big John but when he looked through the tape down at the beginning of the round he did walked his way into a southpaw stance looked at the hematoma in his left shin trust me that thing is badly injured right here this is where Warren wants to be right now that's going to keep Douglas from being able to meet up with a kid do you anything is going to affect that leg the only place that Rory wants to be right now is exactly where he's at John you expect him when they're on the feet to just do more of the same more and more on that damaged leg well Douglas is going to see it he's plated he's going to target it you got to [Applause] nicely time but he did take that shot on the way he needs to get busy to try to get this round back this is a place that McDonald can be effective even at the back way ' the chocolates big that's really good smart Douglas Lina needs his stop allowing it get wrist control start to open his guard feet on the hips that's gonna start to push Lori back that's gonna start keeping Douglas safer than the attack that worries for the brand 36 throw fight for Lima he has only been stopped twice his professional career [Applause] [Music] never been stopped inside the Bellator cage decision against been aspirin years ago in in the first Andre course called fighting Douglas is doing a really good job of tying up Rory's arms keeping him close using his legs to off balance at a time so he has to adjust with his body pressure final seconds first of our two championship rounds the welterweight belt three maids on the line that is nasty not quite Marc Dominic nasty but pretty darn close that is a huge hematoma on that shin you can see him putting ice on it to try to cool it down it's not going to work it's not going to change it in here or now he's just got to gut it through in this last round mutual respect they touch gloves five minutes three mate Peraza javi and David Leah said do not let him go first I look at it right now I've got this fight even I think Douglas Lena's got two rounds and Rory MacDonald's got two outs whoever wins this round he's gonna walk out with that title [Applause] to get a guy down but it's so effective Douglas Leeman right now is not brought to stop getting into this close guard position he's got to get his self off of the ground and start to attack where he's injured going so he can make Rory hop the defendant I agree with Wyatt back nine to four is an absolute warrior years ago in Vancouver Carlos Condit Rory MacDonald was winning that fight big time Carlos turned it off just in the final seconds of the fight the battles with Robbie Lawler Steven Thompson I think his coaches said John this do is something special so javi said he's got a work ethic unlike anything he's ever seen before this is the whole point a lot of people came out and said I think Donnie's done he's a changed fighter because what happened then Steven Thompson no not at all you can see Rory MacDonald is still a dynamic fighter a warrior and a much smarter fighter now today than he was back in those fights he was done he was done fighting that way now fighting this one there you go this is good for Ori where he needs to steep his hips exactly where they're at keep his head right up here Douglas ladies start to cost you as much as you can and land big shots which is going to make the ruffle even keep him off the ground Rory has got on the [ __ ] ground once that was him the loss to season of course the longer fight the second mollify one minute deep [Applause] [Music] [Applause] those elbows are opening up that Doug cannot stay in this position he's trying to get feet on the hips try to push him back and it's not working for him midway point of the fifth and final round the champion is gone 25 minutes three times most recently in his title defense against lorenz larkin [Applause] one's doing a good job utilizing risk control than to roll that elbow over to try to hit Doug with just basic element of fighting but he's doing it so well he's so strong in his positioning it's hard to stop what he wants to do Big John if it is indeed - - coming into the last five minutes Rory MacDonald may be very close to to a bowl he might be look at this is his second chance at winning the world title him right now with the 135 left in this round where the diamond is winning this round Rory staying busy enough to keep this fight right here on the ground [Applause] what this is doing for ease he's got a nose that I think is broken he's got a shed that is absolutely more to something it's not supposed to and when he looked this is what's keeping him safe of those things being injured further which could put him out of the fight right now you see in Douglas Leeman with a body triangle on Laurie that's the best thing he could do he does not want to keep Laurie on and he's got to get Rory off [Applause] so far John has been the battle that we anticipated thank both fighters for this is what happens when you put two elite fighters together it's so hard to get something over on the Aragon and they just tend to slowly systematically just beat them final 30 seconds that Canadian looking to pass a bet the final 15 seconds they stand momentarily seconds on the clock we're given that littlest and upcoming injected it with a punch outstanding they go to distance Douglas Leeman and Rory MacDonald first ever title fight on paramount Network let's take a look at the 25 minutes of battle tonight's fight replay brought to you by Black Card previous fights from the bold 93 proof rum that's edgy to the core right here you're seeing that kick perhaps what you want to give the word that you don't want to take shot long going for the takedown big hips movement by Douglas but Laura keeps driving through circling the when he circles it causes Douglas inability to catch up the ones going [Applause] we elbows by Willie right there this is the fifth round and you're looking at two guys that are exhausted give it all they have you can't ask for anything more who will leave with the

works on almost vicious knockouts in MMA history jail had never fought before tonight and it's just starting John it never fought or even wrestled and heavier he's a guy that would fight anybody anywhere he has fought the very best out there but when you go five rounds with Anderson Silva we win four for them easily some of them can is with powers gonna hurt him it's gonna be cause him to stop his attack and stops his attack that's what control that overhand left has landed a couple of times early for jail started training with Dan Henderson in 1999 a professional since age 19 the old team classed with Randy Couture and company banks shocked by rampage for many chairs we've got here is he doesn't worry about rampage taper down he knows that rampage wants to scam throw rampage Mosby she wants to take you down but right now her chair is not racing to take down this is a smart game plan this is smart fighting by Jeff rampage and Bobbie Wimmer have always had a great relationship you saw some of the social media posts and digital media that we get for you prior to this fight you see they have a lot of fun to Rimmer a clinch for the first time that was a good move to clinch and immediately rampage turned him around which is smart for rampage she has his hands clashed together he's got an S grip right now Johnson [Applause] sites to Ebola [Music] and he has a lower [ __ ] made out of cable his round one a three five minute rounds scheduled and this our first battle in the 2018 Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix chair tried to flying me nice move by chill man he's opening up he's doing different attacks that's gonna keep quitting a little bit unsure and not so quick with those hands coming out nation over the top that left his landed John it has landed multiple times and that's exactly what she needs to do just keep touching him don't think you're gonna knock him out the guy has got a granite chin but if I touch him enough they're slowing down to where I can do whatever I rather the winner of this fight will meet the winner of Frank Mir fedor emelianenko fight in Chicago April 28 that's gonna be just an incredible fight between the X pride heavyweight champion on the X UFC Heavyweight Champion big country Matt Mitrione Ryan Bader King mo the other side of the bracket right to look sharp he's doing good because he's keeping his hands busy he's not waiting he's not chairs keeping those meetings going which is keeping Clinton from being offense he's it's a good attack by Channel and at $10,000 per take down so far rampage is okay good thing that children about to pull rabbits for the takedown she gets $10,000 again [Applause] position channel has outstanding submissions but he doesn't have a whole lot of time left in the round there's only 30 seconds left now quitting's gonna sit there grab Buress try to just write this out from this position this could though especially late in the round put Chael Sonnen up one wall [Applause] right now Tara's squeezing that had them in his neck and that's not going to get bankage does a good job of turning out just the end of the chair can go for that beauty final seconds of round one [Applause] he is the last emperor the former pride heavyweight champion in pride 14 wins 1 no contest round 2 rampage in the red jail in the booth big swing and a couple of misses by rampage notice that this is where that size different even though justice Isaac it may be different you saw how happy just turns them around that is what that size will do for you if they break and strike again rampages corner Bobby Rimmer and Tiki were saying look for the right look for the right [Applause] right now for me because the last time he's got hyperox right straight down to the ground it doesn't feel good though shock the body and he's trying to keep himself at position so [Applause] Ryan Bader you know talking earlier with Jay and Josh saying this is you know perhaps the most exciting thing in MMA right now I don't think it's perhaps I think this is because they are legendary fighters who want to continue to develop and state their legacy this Heavyweight Grand Prix this is it's awesome and what it's going to prove [Applause] position this is what he wants to be so that's perhaps 25 it might be $20,000 down if any of our fans paramount Network CMT around the world don't know the deal rampage said he will give to a son and $10,000 per taped at the end of the day doesn't matter though it's me walks away and advances to rally to real question is is he gonna say well I got you down so that's 10,000 [Applause] what you see from Chael Sonnen that's what we call a can open started he'll bring his hands together it's not the smartest thing it does open the guard comes in him open guard like this is a good position for chels and the Big Shot trying to keep his head up high a smart good ground fighter my Chesham here he's passing the leg steps over it beautiful job of getting him stuff right into a half garden [Music] rampage is clearly stated it over and over I'm an alpha male that's how I fight just surpass the midway point of this three rounds the chill is the matter good shared culture with his right shoulder it's not gonna stop Jackson's almost just got a waiter same camara the chill tried to get them away sodium I heard it needs to extend that on bring it back he needs if he can get his right leg over the top of who Quentin's head that's gonna bring Quentin's head up give him room to move that on back and that chimera could happen between the UFC and Bellator jail six fights at light heavyweight ten that middle way to care 20 pounds in this heavyweight fight against rampage utilizing the Turk and nobody did it better than Randy Couture his old teammate his old
