SAN JOSE, Calif. – Unbeaten Hungarian ace Adam Borics delivered the goods once again as he handed former Bellator featherweight champion Pat Curran his first stoppage loss and moved on to the quarterfinals of the Bellator featherweight grand prix tournament. Borics (14-0 MMA, 5-0 BMMA) finished Curran (23-9 MMA, 13-6 BMMA) with strikes with one second left in the first round at Bellator 226 to extend his perfect professional record and add another big name to his growing resumé. And the 26-year-old Hungarian said he ignored the calls from his corner to get back to his feet after dropping Curran with a flying knee as he instead proceeded to follow his man to the mat and unload a barrage of ground and pound that forced referee Frank Trigg to end the contest with one second to go in the opening frame.
