ACB 54 Supersonic Results: Khalidov Crushes Barnatt, Loughnane Tops Wilkinson

On Saturday, March 11, Absolute Championship Berkut debuted in Manchester, England for Absolute Championship Berkut 54: Barnatt vs. Khalidov.

In the evening’s main event, one of the world’s best middleweights outside of the UFC, Mamed Khalidov, took on UFC veteran Luke Barnatt. The KSW middleweight champion Khalidov had defeated his past 12 opponents with stoppages in 10 of those bouts. Barnatt had a four-fight winning streak of his own since being cut from the UFC following a loss to Mark Muñoz at UFC Fight Night 66 in 2015.

In the evening’s main card action, the top Romanian middleweight Ion Pascu fought former KSW welterweight champion Aslambek Saidov. Former UFC lightweight Robert Whiteford took on former featherweight King of Pancrase and fellow UFC veteran Nam Phan. Undefeated prospects clashed when England’s Dean Garnett looked to defend his home territory against Australia’s Michael Tobin. KOTC champion Joshua Aveles took on Russia’s Amirkhan Adaev. TUF: Smashes veteran Brendan Loughnane hoped for revenge when he took on fellow reality show participant Mike Wilkinson. NCAA champion wrestler Bubba Jenkins met Russia’s Ali Bagov.
