Patrick Mix is a perfect 11-0 in his career with eight finishes and coming off a Bellator debut where he submitted Ricky Bandejas in 66 seconds.
For Mix, getting that win and proving himself as an elite-level bantamweight was a huge confidence boost.
“I always have so much confidence in myself. I always knew the level I was at because of who I train with, but to go out there and prove it against someone like Ricky was important to me,” Mix said to Sherdog. “I just have similar confidence, the stage being bigger and being on Bellator is the most important for me.
