MMA: GIRTZ CUT STOPS CLASSIC BRAWL AT BELLATOR 181

July 15, 2017 Jesse Kelley Off MN MMA NEWS, OUR LATEST FEATURE STORIES,

Minnesota MMA warrior Brandon Girtz (14-7) and Derek Campos (18-7) of Texas took turns pounding each other for two bloody rounds last night in the main event of Bellator 181 on Spike TV. Girtz was the busier of the two and landed some monstrous punches in the fight but a knee by Campos split open Girtz’ forehead which ultimately led to the fight being called off following the conclusion of the second round. The cut was massive and deep yet Girtz was not happy with the fight being stopped as he stood ready to throwdown again for the last round.
