It’s safe to say that AJ Agazarm’s professional mixed martial arts (MMA) debut didn’t go according to plan. The former Division I collegiate wrestler and jiu-jitsu medalist faced Jesse Roberts, another fellow rookie, in his Bellator debut. Unfortunately for Agazarm, he was bested on the judges’ scorecards. In what was a pretty uneventful fight, for the most part, Roberts won a split decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28).
While there aren’t many highlights to talk about, you can check out some clips from the bout below:
