Sidney Outlaw admits Adam Piccolotti fight was ‘humbling,’ but disputes split-decision verdict

UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Sidney Outlaw admitted that he was surprised by Adam Piccolotti in their Bellator 244 bout on Friday night, he was less than impressed with the scorecards tendered by the judges after their fight.

During his post-fight press conference, Outlaw discussed why he thinks he should have won by unanimous decision, what it’s like training under the guidance of Mike Brown, working on his nutrition and what’s next for him.
