Bellator 169 results and videos: King Mo reigns supreme in Dublin

Check out the results and video from Bellator 169 including the marquee heavyweight matchup between King Mo and Satoshi Ishii.

Bellator 169 is officially in the books as the Viacom promotion held it’s first event today from Dublin, Ireland. The main event for the evening witnessed King Mo, in a one-sided affair, travel the distance with Satoshi Ishii in the heavyweight division. The co-main event for Bellator 169 saw Ireland’s own featherweight prospect, James Gallagher, pick up his second Bellator win with a third round submission of Anthony Taylor.

Main Card:

Muhammed Lawal def. Satoshi Ishii via Unanimous Decision (30-27 x3): Heavyweight

King Mo started strong against the heavier Satoshi Ishii, as Lawal landed more strikes on the feet and was able to secure a pair of takedowns to round out the first frame. Ishii began the second stanza by throwing more volume, but most of those strikes missed their mark. King Mo continued to land with punches on the feet and was able to put the Judo expert Ishii on the ground multiple times in both the second and final round of Bellator 169. King Mo dictated the pace with Satoshi Ishii and earned himself a unanimous decision victory in Bellator’s heavyweight division.

Satoshi Ishii was reluctant to swing on King Mo, and paid for it:
