Dominates Lima to take belt
Amosov defeated Douglas Lima via unanimous decision (50-45, 49-46, 49-46) to become the new Bellator Welterweight Champion at Bellator 260 on June 11 at Mohegan Sun Arena.
ANALYSIS
Amosov showed excellent stand-up defense against a dangerous striker, completely neutralizing the offense of the now-former champion. As a combat sambo world champion, Amosov also put his grappling to work, completing a takedown in all five rounds en route to a clean sweep on the scorecards. It wasn't the most fan-friendly fight, but Amosov did just enough from top position to stop the ref from intervening upon his well-executed game plan. With seemingly little damage taken in this one, Amosov could be in line to make his first defense in the near future.
