Liz Carmouche was in serious dangerous of losing her flyweight belt as the Bellator 294 main event headed into the championship rounds.
with an arm-triangle choke at the 4:29 mark of Round 4 on Friday night at the Neil S. Blaisdell Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. Carmouche was down 3-0 on the scorecards before the finish, and though her opponent missed weight, the champion had agreed to vacate the flyweight title in defeat. Instead, she extended her Bellator MMA winning streak to six.
Bennett has a history of trouble on the scales when she faces Carmouche. Prior to their meeting at Bellator 246, Bennett tipped the scales 5.7 pounds above the flyweight limit. This time, the Invicta Fighting Championships veteran was 1.2 pounds heavy, making her ineligible to win the title. Carmouche was clearly annoyed by her adversary’s inability to make weight.
