After three rounds of mostly scrambling and submission attempts, the ‘Mercenary’ scored a unanimous decision win. On Twitter, pro fighters and pundits reacted to the match.

A.J. McKee vs. Spike Carlyle was the best kind of absurd. Super intrigued to see what McKee can be at 155 pounds. Dude looked like a monster tonight. #Bellator286

That was fucking fantastic, I don’t care if they were both exhausted by R3. Legit felt like a 5 minute fight, nonstop action.
