JAMES GALLAGHER RECORDED a first-round stoppage in the main event of last night’s Bellator event in Dublin’s 3 Arena.
Gallagher made short work of late replacement opponent Roman Salazar, going for a choke inside 15 seconds and the submission was called with just 35 seconds on the clock.
JUST LIKE THAT!

While the co-main event also brought an early finish, a flying-knee knock-out win by Michael Paige over Richard Kelly, Peter Queally offered the best value at the show as he came out on top of a tough contest with Ryan Scope.
Scope dropped Queally with a head kick early on, but the Waterford man held on to avoid the stoppage and showed greater stamina to finish round two on top and with the stoppage win.
Peter Queally has done it!

It’s coming down to it now and the pressure is really on. Teams like West Ham are lining up to have a go at Liverpool. The Rock solid defence is looking weak and teams will smell blood if the heads start to drop. City will beat Everton handy so Liverpool need to win tonight to keep top spot.
@Dan: the game against Leicester is a game Liverpool would have won by 2 or 3 goals before Xmas,a huge game for them tonight,if they drop points tonight the advantage is slightly back towards Man City
@John Connolly: if they win, you will use the same logic for the next game! Lots pf twists and turns left yet ffs, its over 38 games. Liverpool are not 5 points ahead by accident.
