Zach Zane wasn’t about to let another big opportunity slip away. Zane (14-9 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) failed to make good on his opportunity at Dana White’s Contender Series this past June, but made sure things went differently when he made his Bellator debut in December. He faced fellow Hawaiian Nainoa Dung at Bellator 236 in Honolulu and used a grapple-heavy approach to score a unanimous decision win. In Round 1, Zane used his wrestling early to control the fight. The brown belt in jiu-jitsu was able to get the fight back down to the mat in Round 2, putting heavy pressure on Dung with multiple submission attempts. The two engaged in a beautiful scramble, with Dung sweeping Zane, but Zane was able to wound up in top position once again
