Daniel Gracie fought hard, but lost his Bellator light heavyweight bid this Saturday in Tunica, Mississippi.
After two evenly-matched rounds, Tim Carpenter landed a hook that wobbled the black belt in the final round, which likely helped sway the judges’ opinions. When the scorecards came in, the decision was in the American’s favor, thus maintaining his invincibility and bringing his tally to seven career wins.
The others still afloat in the GP are D.J. Linderman, who beat Raphael Davis by technical knockout; Richard hale, who submitted Nik Fekete with a reverse triangle; and Christian M’Pumbu landed an on-the-button bomb on Chris Davis, putting a stop to the action.
