Gets submitted by Goiti Yamauchi in chaotic first round
Mircea lost to Goiti Yamauchi via submission (triangle choke) at 3:33 of Round 1 at Bellator 168 on Saturday in Florence, Italy.
ANALYSIS
Mircea dropped Yamauchi with a punch early on, but despite his best efforts, the 23-year-old was unable to finish his opponent via ground-and-pound. Yamauchi eventually was able to get top position before catching the triangle in a scramble. These kinds of losses have to hurt, as it seemed like Mircea was one shot away from victory several times before getting caught. Mircea, who had won his last four fights prior to Saturday's contest, sees his record drop to 13-4 as a result of the loss.
