ROSEMONT, Ill. – Jake Hager admits he had a little extra fuel to his fire going into Bellator 221. However, he is adamant none of that played a role in holding a choke too long in his victory over T.J. Jones . Hager (2-0 MMA, 2-0 BMMA), a former WWE superstar known as Jack Swagger, was showered with boos after he submitted Jones (1-2 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) with an arm-triangle choke in their heavyweight bout. He held the choke beyond the time the referee initially intervened, which caused a negative reaction
