Watch Lorenz Larkin put out Moukahmed Berkhamov with vicious elbow (Video)
Lorenz Larkin ends the Bellator 290 preliminary card in emphatic fashion, shutting out the lightd of Moukahmed Berkahmov with a brutal standing elbow
In just its first event of 2023, Bellator MMA already has a candidate for Knockout of the Year, as Lorenz Larkin put Moukahmed Berkamov away in under two minutes to conclude the Bellator 290 prelims.
The two had unfinished business after their Bellator 283 bout in July, which saw the fight end in a no-contest after a Larkin elbow landed on the back of Berkahmov’s head.
This time, a legal elbow would close the deal for good. As the two were in close in the center of the cage, the two briefly clinched before Larkin broke it by throwing a quick elbow.
