Bellator officials knew the risks, and unfortunately, it resulted in a worst-case scenario.

Sports Lab fighter Tyson Nam knocked out Bellator bantamweight champion Eduardo Dantas Saturday at “Shooto Brazil 33: Fight for BOPE 2” in Brazil.

Bellator granted permission to Dantas, who’s cracked the division’s top 10 during his recent Bellator title reign, to fight outside the organization in order to avoid an extended layoff.
