Filed under: AXS TV Fights , News , Videos Matt Bessette did enough damage in the CES MMA 44 main event on Friday that a doctor took a look at Rey Trujillo after 10 minutes and shut the whole thing down. It wasn’t a walk in the park, necessarily, for Bessette (22-7), but the CES MMA featherweight champ kept his title against the gritty Trujillo (21-19) in the AXS TV-broadcast main event from Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I. Then Bessette wanted to know why UFC President Dana White and matchmaker Sean Shelby aren’t blowing up his phone yet. Maybe they will be after Friday night. Also on the card, Greg Rebello (22-7) had difficulty putting Kevin Ray Sears (4-3) with his hands, so he just choked him out instead.
