Paige VanZant watches husband curl into ball in devastating defeat at Bellator Dublin
UFC fighter Paige VanZant could only watch from a distance as partner Austin Vanderford suffered a gruesome TKO defeat to Gegard Mousasi at Bellator 275 on Friday evening.The middleweight title challenger looked out of his depth from the outset in Dublin and lasted only 85 seconds before the referee waved to end the fight - with VanZant watching on in Dublin.Vanderford, 31, came into the clash with a pristine 11-0 record but suffered the first defeat of his career in convincing fashion, with Bellator middleweight champion Mousasi at no point looking troubled.'The Gentleman' was stung early on and shot to get his opponent to the ground, but he appeared to catch a knee to the head and swiftly curled into a defensive ball as Mousasi unleashed a torrent of elbows and punches.Mousasi, 36, has now successfully defended his crown on two occasions in his second run as Bellator's middleweight king, having previously won the belt before losing to Rafael Lovato Jr.
