ANALYSIS
Umar earned the call up to Bellator despite dropping his last two bouts. He turned professional in 2015 and won his first five fights. Angeloff appeared to be the more diverse striker. However, Umar had a big power advantage. He stay patient and landed hard strikes when it matter. This was a great way to shake off two losses and pick up a win in Bellator.
