Bellator 225 results and highlights: Kharitonov TKO’s Mitrione on night of nothing but finishes

Bellator 225 just wrapped up from the Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport, Connecticut with a rare occurrence where all fourteen-fights ended with a finish. Of those finishes was a main event rematch between big men Matt Mitrione and Sergei Kharitonov. After knocking out the mouthpiece of his opponent no less than four times, Kharitonov put together a combination that dropped the American. A flurry of ground strikes sealed the deal. Kharitonov hasn’t lost a fight since getting stopped by Javy Ayala in his Bellator debut back in 2016.

In the co-main event slot, Bellator’s former heavyweight champ Vitaly Minakov had a return to form.
