Liam McGeary thought he could force Phil Davis into takedown attempts and take advantage with his guard at Bellator 163. Instead, Davis dominated on the ground and captured the light heavy title by lopsided decision. The event took place at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. The main card aired on Spike following prelims on MMAjunkie. Davis (17-3 MMA, 4-0 BMMA) tagged McGeary (11-1 MMA, 8-1 BMMA) with a left hook in Round 1, taking the champ’s confidence on the feet for much of the round. Davis scored a takedown and went into mount and spent the round forcing McGeary to defend from every position until the opening round came to a close.
