After sending Luca Iovine to the canvas in the opening exchanges of their bantamweight tussle, Wexford’s Brian Moore superior striking likely saw him take a split decision win over the veteran European campaigner. A far cry from the back and forth action of their first meeting in 2020, Storley struggled to keep pace in third as Amosov gave the first glimpses of his celebrated grappling game. Also representing the John Kavanagh team, Kenny Mokhonoana, Asael Adjoudj and Darragh Kelly came away with wins to bolster their fledgling careers. The first round played out exclusively in the striking department, with Storley sporting a cut over his right eye to commemorate the action. Opening the main card, undefeated Ciaran Clarke was at his suffocating best, completely dominating short-notice opponent Leonardos Sinis with a performance that left no doubt in the three cage-side judges' minds. In the co-main event, Jeremy Kennedy wasted no time taking honorary Irishman Pedro Carvalho to the ground.
Yaroslav Amosov couldn't have had a better fight in his return to the cage in the main event of Bellator Dublin.
