Recap: Mansour Barnaoui Chokes Out Adam Piccolotti in Bellator287 Main Event
Early scrambles saw Rogers take his opponent down, secure the back of Wilde and look for several submissions. However, the English fighter would survive a couple of close calls to see a second round. Wilde would fare much better in Round 2 as he found himself on top of"Tha Hangman" and was able to land some thudding ground and pound before the fight went back to the feet.
After 15 minutes of action, the judges decided Wilde had done enough for a split decision win with scores of 29-28, 28-29 and 29-28.
