Bellator middleweight champion Johnny Eblen got sliced open by Fabian Edwards, then engaged berserker mode to finish his man in brutal fashion to retain his 185-pound title at Bellator 299 in Dublin.
The fight card for Bellator’s return to Dublin in September has been boosted by the addition of a top-quality featherweight matchup.
Patricio Pitbull added to his impressive legacy under the Bellator banner by successfully defending his featherweight title at Bellator 286, but the manner of his performance against Hungarian challenger Adam Borics did little to entertain the fans in Long Beach, California.
Two of Bellator's top fighters from the So-Cal region have been added to the main card to provide even more star power to the event.
