Bellator Champions Series: Belfast results: Patricio Freire swarms Jeremy Kennedy, calls for UFC, PFL title fights

Patricio Freire wants UFC and PFL title opportunities after stopping Jeremy Kennedy at Bellator Champions Series: Belfast.

[autotag]Patricio Freire[/autotag] is back in a big way and wants to claim gold across multiple promotions after scoring another defense of his Bellator featherweight title.

In the co-feature at Bellator Champions Series: Belfast, Freire (36-7 MMA, 24-6 BMMA) shared the cage with title challenger Jeremy Kennedy (19-4 MMA, 4-2 BMMA). Although there was a slight scare for the champ, Fereire overcame the moment to finish Kennedy (19-4 MMA, 4-2 BMMA) in the same round. The stoppage came by strikes at 4:07 of Round 3.

The fight started slowly, and with five rounds to work, there wasn’t much need to rush.

Freire began working behind a steady, patient gameplan of intermittent leg kicks and counter strikes. Kennedy studied, and worked behind a left jab, but the strikes were few and far between in the opening round.

The slow pace rolled over into Round 2, however, causing a few boo birds to chirp throughout the crowd. Kennedy began to turn up the forward pressure, but soon found himself eating a big right hand from Freire. Swelling on Kennedy’s left leg became apparent, with Frerie continuing to land hard leg kicks.

In the third round, everything changed as both fighters had big moments.

Kennedy sat down on a punch, sending Freire to stumble backward. Kennedy rushed in to follow up, but Freire quickly gathered himself and kept his defense solid. However, a cut was opened on “Pitbull” from a nice elbow during the sequence.

After weathering the storm, Freire reset and began marching forward.

Just when Kennedy’s confidence was mounting, “Pitbull” clipped him with a clean punch, rocking the challenger. Freire noticed his opponent was hurt and quickly swarmed with strikes. Kennedy covered up against the cage, as Freire unloaded until the referee stopped the fight.

During his post-fight interview, Freire called for a title fight he missed out on against Jesus Pinedo at PFL vs. Bellator: Champions, and even called for a cross-promotional UFC title fight. After shooting for the moon, he did offer one name in particular, Aaron Pico, who is likely the next man up in Bellator.

The result marked a return to the win column for Freire, who suffered back-to-back losses in a Bellator bantamweight title bid against Sergio Pettis and a short-notice appearance against Chihiro Suzuki at Bellator x Rizin 2.

In addition to being back in the winner’s circle, Freire adds to his all-time Bellator records for most wins (23), most finishes (14) and most title fight wins (13).

Bellator Champions Series: Belfast faceoff video: Patricio Freire, Jeremy Kennedy emotionless

Watch as Patricio Freire and Jeremy Kennedy stare each other down ahead of their Bellator Champions Series: Belfast co-main event.

It appears to be all business between Bellator featherweight champion [autotag]Patricio Freire[/autotag] and challenger [autotag]Jeremy Kennedy[/autotag] heading into their title clash.

Ahead of Saturday’s Bellator Champions Series: Belfast co-main event, Freire (35-7) and Kennedy (19-3) came face to face for the final time before their five-round bout.

Neither fighter displayed any interpretable emotion as they stared each other down. “Pitbull” clutched his gold title throughout. The height difference, which is listed as five inches, was noticeable – not that Freire is unfamiliar with such a discrepancy.

Jeremy Kennedy: ‘I’m a lot more physical at featherweight’ than Bellator champ Patricio Freire

Jeremy Kennedy expects to have a strength advantage over Bellator champ Patricio Freire.

[autotag]Jeremy Kennedy[/autotag] expects to have a strength advantage over Bellator featherweight champion [autotag]Patricio Freire[/autotag].

Kennedy (19-3) challenges Freire (34-7) in Friday’s Bellator Champions Series: Belfast co-headliner at SSE Arena in Northern Ireland.

Freire finds himself on a two-fight losing skid for the first time in his career. But with both losses not coming at featherweight, Kennedy admits it’s tough to gauge which version of Freire he’ll get.

“I’m training like I’m fighting the best ‘Pitbull,'” Kennedy told MMA Junkie Radio. “I have to. That’s the way I approach every fight. It’s hard because there is a lot of little speculation around those losses. He hasn’t lost at 145. So he’s still, in my eyes, that undisputed, that multitime champion. (At) 145, who’s beat him at 145?”

One of Freire’s losses came in a bantamweight title fight against Sergio Pettis this past June – his divisional debut. He was then knocked out less than a month later by Chihiro Suzuki in a 154-pound catchweight bout that he accepted on very short notice.

While Kennedy doesn’t put too much stock into Freire’s skid, he can’t help but think his recent cut to 135 pounds will play a factor.

“The biggest thing that sticks out to me was that cut to ’35,” Kennedy said. “Not the age, not the wear and tear, just the frame, the size. The fact that he could even make that weight, I just know I’m a bigger human than him. I just know I’m a lot more physical at featherweight than he is because I couldn’t even dream about making 140.

“So, the fact that he could, and did, and not even that long ago, like within a year, I don’t think he’s going to be able to put on the muscle properly to even compare with me physically. That’s the biggest one I’m taking away, is I just think he’s going to be too small. But again, he has fought his whole life as a pretty undersized featherweight. He’s a little undersized, and I plan on showing that just by being too physical and too dominant everywhere.”
