3/9/14

Bellator 111 kicked off a weekend filled with MMA. This fight card, which took place in Oklahoma, saw much more success then the season opener for the promotion. The Heavyweight tournament kicked off with every fight ending in a finish. And in the main event Eduardo Dantas defended his Bantamweight title by defeating Anthony Leone via rear naked choke at 2:04 of round 2.

At RFA 13, Lightweight Dakota Cochrane squeaked by Efrain Escudero to win a controversial unanimous decision.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship headed to England for yet another UFC Fight Pass event. Bantamweight turned Flyweight Brad Pickett slugged it out for three rounds with Neil Seery in route to a unanimous decision win. Pickett's next fight will possibly be against Flyweight champion Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson whom he beat in their first meeting. Lightweight Michael Johnson continued his hot streak by earning a unanimous decision over Melvin Guillard. In the main event former Light Heavyweight title contender Alexander Gustafsson landed a vicious knee followed up by punches to win via TKO over Jimi Manuwa at 1:18 of round 2. Gustafsson will get the winner of Jon Jones and Glover Teixeira.

Former UFC Middleweight Yushin Okami will fight Svetlozar Savov at WSOF 9.

Lightweight Mike Ricci and George Sotiropolous will fight at Titan FC 28. The fight will most likely be the main event.

EFC Africa fighter Booto Guylain past away due to injuries sustained in his February MMA fight.

The California State Athletic Commission has announced its ban on TRT. It follows the same path as Nevada and UFC sanctioned events.
