Bellator’s latest featherweight tournament finale did not take place tonight in Atlantic City as scheduled, as Shabulat Shamhalaev was pulled from the fight due a reported case of food poisoning.

The fight between Shamhalaev anad Rad Martinez  has been moved to next Friday’s Bellator 84 card instead, which will take place in Hammond, Indiana.

In fights that did go off as scheduled, Jessica Eye choked out Bellator’s 115 pound women’s champion Zoila Gurgel with a standing arm-triangle-choke, and Anthony Leone worked his way to a split decision over former bantamweight champ Zach Makovsky.

Here are the results from Bellator 83.

Anthony Leone def. Zach Makovsky via split decision (29-28, 29-28, 28-29)
Jessica Eye def. Zoila Gurgel via technical submission (arm-triangle-choke), R1 (0:58)
