AJ McKee improved his undefeated record to 16-0 and advanced to the Featherweight Gran Prix semi-finals in impressive fashion last night. The 24-year-old pulled off a slick armbar submission against Derek Campos in the co-main event slot at Bellator 236, in Honolulu, Hawaii. McKee overcame the trademark toughness of Campos to earn a third-round finish. Check out video of the fight ending sequence below.
The undefeated prospect dominated the fight on the feet in the first two rounds. McKee showed off his impressive hands in both rounds, dropping Campos twice. However, Campos did enjoy some success in the fight. After scrambling to top position, he was able to land some ground and pound in the second round. Unfortunately for him that seemed to light a fire in McKee who came out even better in round three. He chased his own takedown only to be reversed once again, however this time he threw up a triangle, before modifying into a straight armbar submission. With his fifth career submission win McKee is first Bellator Featherweight Gran Prix semi-finalist.
Despite looking so impressive McKee revealed post fight he was actually struggling with an illness pre fight. Speaking to MMA Junkie, he said.
“Before the opening morning workout, I
actually ran six miles to the mountain and back. I threw up four times on the
run, I think I had slight food poisoning. I don’t know. I knew I just needed to
get it out of my system whatever it was. It was nothing really. It’s a mindset.
I’m going to fight regardless. I’m a warrior, I’m always going to fight.”
Will AJ McKee win the Bellator Featherweight Gran-Prix?

In July 2016, Ferguson Jr. signed with Bellator MMA. He is the son of “Kimbo Slice,” who also fought for the promotion. He sadly passed away of heart failure in June of 2016.
Ferguson Jr. made his mixed martial arts debut on November 19, 2016 against Aaron Hamilton at Bellator 165 where he lost by first-round guillotine choke. He earned his first professional win against DJ Griffin by TKO at Bellator 179.
He would then rip off wins over Fred Freeman at Bellator 187 and Devon Brock at Bellator 197 by first-round guillotine choke. In his latest fight, Baby Slice faced Corey Browning on October 12, 2018 at Bellator 207 where he lost the back-and-forth fight via TKO.
On the flip side, McKee is on an impressive 14-fight winning streak. He’s fought under the Bellator MMA banner for his entire professional career. In his latest outing, he beat former two-time Bellator featherweight champion Pat Curran at Bellator 221 on May 11, 2019 by decision.

AJ McKee Jr. will take on Pat Curran at this weekend’s Bellator 221, but the “Mercenary” really wants a featherweight title fight.
McKee, 24, is one of mixed martial arts’ brightest young prospects. He has compiled an unbeaten record of 13-0 and will look to make it 14 straight this weekend in Chicago, Illinois.
While McKee may not be getting his wish to fight for the title in the Windy City, he will be fighting a former Bellator featherweight champion in Curran.
“This is the most focused I’ve ever been,” McKee told LowkickMMA. “I’m looking forward to going in there and making a statement. I always say I like to make statements.”
McKee points out that he and Curran were scheduled to meet once before in September of 2018. However, Curran was forced to pull out, and well, McKee did what he already told you he likes to do – he made a statement.
“No one had finished John Macapa when Pat pulled out, so I was like ‘I’m going to make a statement with John Macapa.’ And I went in there and knocked him out in less than a minute.”
After the Macapa fight, McKee met Daniel Crawford at Bellator 212 in Honolulu, Hawaii, all the while calling out the featherweight champion Pitbull brother.
That brings us to this weekend’s Bellator 221. McKee is fighting on the same card as Patricio Pitbull. Pitbull will look to become the promotion’s second double champ when he faces lightweight champion Michael Chandler in the main event in Chicago.
He had a pair of harsh messages for Freire in closing:
The “Mercenary’s” message for Pitbull: You’re gonna go get knocked the hell out by Chandler. Then, I want to knock his ass out before the Grand Prix as well.”
