“Batman” Kurt Pellegrino (15-4) won a three-round unanimous decision over “Dentist” Josh Neer (25-8-1) at UFC 101 in Philadelphia Saturday.
Pellegrino’s takedowns went undefended by Neer and the lightweight pecked away at Neer with hammerfists and elbows while Neer shrugged at the referee from his back.
Neer did more damage and made more attempts to finish the fight. In the first round, Neer threw up several armbars and in the second round he attempted triangle chokes, but Pellegrino bucked them all.
In the third round, Neer opened a cut over Pellegrino’s right eye with elbows from his back, then chiseled away in the clinch, leaving Pellegrino bloddied at the final bell.
