by Submission, catching Joe Pingitore in a Second Round (4:38) Heel-Hook to win the CES FW Title. In addition to the August
win, Bessette also halted three more opponents’ nights early in 2016: He
stopped Ran Weathers with a First Round (4:50) Guillotine-Choke 6/10/16, In April at Bellator 153, Bessette was awarded his fifth win by TKO/KO over

in a Bessette Triangle-Choke in the opening

opponent Danyelle Williams at 231lbs. A Third Round TKO loss to Ashley Gooch in

eight have been with CES, twelve in
his career so far 8-4 with 5 TKO/KO, 1 Sub.
