Hamilton hands 4-foot-11 Freeland 1st loss via 22-second submission

It was a short night for Tyler "Hulk Hands" Freeland.

Standing at 4-foot-11, the diminutive bantamweight suffered his first career loss at Bellator 155 after being punted by Joe Hamilton and submitted with a rear-naked choke just 22 seconds into the opening round.

Freeland was one of the more inspirational stories on the card, overcoming a height disadvantage to start off 3-0 as a featherweight prior to his Bellator debut Friday.
