Darragh Kelly was awarded the Takedown of the Night at Bellator Champions Series in London on Saturday night.
Kelly moved to 7-0 as a pro with an impressive defeat of the previously unbeaten Dmytrii Hrytsenk at Wembley.
After the points victory, the Moville man was announced as the Takedown of the Night winner.
“I'm a pressure fighter and I don't take a back step,” Kelly said afterwards.
“We knew that this guy was going to come forward. He likes to be the hammer, not the nail and he's comfortable when he's letting his shots go.
“We saw that he isn't comfortable going backwards. I didn't take a backward step for the whole fight.”
