Bellator 144's Brandon Halsey likely moving to 205 after losing middleweight title bout
BJPENN.COM News - October 25, 2015
Bellator made their long-awaited return after a one month layoff between cards with “Bellator 144” which took place at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. The vacated Bellator Middleweight Championship found a new owner on Friday night when Rafael Carvalho disposed of Brandon Halsey in less than ten minutes with a brutal liver kick. Halsey never lost the title in competition, but rather due to a technicality. He walked into his Bellator 137 bout with Kendall Grove overweight and was stripped of the championship. The only way the championship would leave the cage slung over somebody’s shoulder that night was if Grove were to walk out victorious as Halsey was restricted from winning it.
