Anatoly Tokov continues to announce himself as a force to be reckoned with in the Bellator MMA middleweight division.

Tokov (29-2) punished Hracho Darpinyan (17-9-2) over just under two rounds, beating Darpinyan to the punch, grounding him at will and moving effortlessly to the crucifix position in both rounds. Late in the second round, Tokov pinned Darpinyan’s arm in a crucifix and rained down short punches as referee Jason Herzog warned Darpinyan to defend himself.
