From the moment he caught the first kick, James Gallagher was well on his way to a rebound victory. His opponent, Steven Graham , came out firing an immediate kick in the center of the cage. Gallagher was ready for it and caught it. From there, the fight went straight to the mat, where Gallagher put on a grappling clinic until securing a submission win with a rear-naked choke at the 2:31 mark of the first round of their Bellator 217 headliner. For the 22-year-old Gallagher, it was an impressive way to recover from the first loss of his career, a devastating knockout last August by Ricky Bandejas
