https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjAGtQosof0 Weight Class: Featherweight Pat Curran is ranked tenth by Sherdog, after reclaiming his Bellator championship from Danial Straus in a fight he was seconds away from possibly losing. With 14 seconds left on the clock, Curran sank in a rear-naked choke for the win, and in doing so cemented one of the best comeback wins seen in the Bellator cage. With a 20-5 record, Curran has a host of notable wins to his name, over the likes of Mike Ricci, Roger Huerta, Marlon Sandro, Joe Warren, Patricio Freire, Shahbulat Shamhalaev, and is 2-1 against Daniel Straus. Importantly, he can perform in the spotlight, and in reclaiming his belt showed he could come back from adversity. Next up is another bout against Patricio Freire, whom he last defeated in January 2013 in his first title defence during his initial championship run.
