ANALYSIS
Simmons was set to face prospect Jarod Trice, but the bout fizzled on the day of the weigh in. Instead, he made his Bellator debut against Dooley. His new opponent might not have had the wrestling credentials, but he still had enough skill to control the fight with takedowns. Dooley scored takedowns in each round. He did not land very many strikes, but he spent the majority of fight sitting in side control. In the second round, Dooley framed up an Americana and finished the fight easily. Simmons falls to 1-1 as a professional.
