Roberts lost to Carrington Banks via unanimous decision (29-28, 30-27, 30-27) at Bellator 165 on Saturday in San Jose, Calif.
ANALYSIS
Roberts appeared to be the more experience fighter. He ate a lot of hard punches and got taken down. However, he kept coming forward and landing hard leg kicks. On the ground, he defended well and nearly swept Banks multiple times. However, the story of this fight really was Bank's ability to continually land hard and damaging right hands while also controlling the fight with takedowns.
