Britain's Michael 'Venom' Page continued to impress with his latest victory coming in Japan while Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson suffered a KO defeat.
London fighter MVP picked apart Japanese opponent Shinsho Anzai to claim his third-straight knockout finish in devastating fashion at Bellator 237 at Saitama Super Arena.
The 32-year-old will be determined to lock down a rematch with current Bellator welterweight champion Douglas Lima in 2020.
Headliner Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson suffered his first stoppage loss since 2005 after a knockout defeat to Fedor Emelianenko.
"It's alright. I'll be back. But I ain't going back at heavyweight. I've got to lose this weight," admitted Jackson after his loss.
