Primus looking to defend his title

33-year-old American Brent Primus defends his world lightweight championship; he’ll be hoping to continue the glittering form that saw him top the division on the back of a run of incredible results. The Portland native fights out of the Sports Lab and brings a style heavily reliant on his background fighting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu where he reached the level of black belt.

Since turning his skills to professional MMA fighting in 2010, he has amassed a perfect eight-fight record, winning each of his previous outings. A closer look at the CV of Primus shows he has won half by submission with two wins coming by way of knockout and another two victories handed to him on the scorecards.

The champ won his trophy last time out courtesy of a TKO win over the same opponent, Michael Chandler, in New York City on Bellator NYC in the summer of last year. A leg injury was to blame for the bout coming to a premature end and that left a bad taste in the mouth of both fighters, as well as fans after seeing the clash warm-up into what promised to be a thriller. We were robbed of a great fight that night; however, thankfully organisers and both men were more than happy to put in the work to arrange a rematch. Let’s hope this one is fought to a proper conclusion and there’s no controversy in the result.
