Fails to break through against Patricky Freire at Bellator 194
Campos lost to Patricky Freire via TKO (punches) at 2:23 of Round 1 at Bellator 194 on Friday in Uncasville, Conn.
ANALYSIS
Campos came into this fight riding a four-fight winning streak. However, that all came to an end in the first round against Freire. Campos, as usual, sat on his power punches. This allowed "Pitbull" to lead. About two minutes into the round, Freire came forward with an overhand right and floored Campos. He got back to his feet, but, at that point, Freire was all over him. Campos is still a high-level lightweight, and there are plenty of fights for him in the Bellator division.

Walks out the winner of brutal Bellator 181 main event
Campos defeated Brandon Girtz via TKO (cut) at 5:00 of Round 2 at Bellator 181 on Friday in Thackerville, Okla.
ANALYSIS
This fight was really something. Neither fighter seemed interesting is doing anything other than throwing bombs. Both fighters were hurt on multiple occasions, but whenever a fighter was hurt, the other would come storming back with power shots. Towards the end of the first round, Campos landed a hard knee of Girtz that caused a massive cut on Girtz's forehead. He was bleeding very badly, but the doctor and referee allowed him to come out for the second round. Girtz absorbed more damage in that round, and the referee stopped the fight before the final round. Campos was getting the better of the exchanges and likely would have won if the fight went to the cards. Since losing to Girtz in 2015, Campos has now won four-straight fights. If he continues this winning streak, he might end up fight for the promotion's lightweight title.
