Ferguson vs brian ortega

Winner of Max/Ortega vs winner of Khabib/Ferguson would be fire. If Ferguson's next opponent ain't Khabib though, I'ma be upset (even though that Ortega fight sounds like a dream match for sure).

This one might sneak past heads...it's gonna be fire though.

Its never even crossed my mind but now its the number one fight i wanna see. They would put on a show

One using that Japanese money mark money to sign Eddie Alvarez. Good for him. I'm disappointed that he's not going to be fighting better fighters though...he's going to run through the Filipinos and Thais on their roster

 

[So UnThotful]

Imagine if the HW Final is a middleweight vs a light heavyweight

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

I think Coker got the right idea about having other champions from other promotions fighting under their banner

If we go back to the Strikeforce/EliteXC co-promotion days only with Bellator/RIZIN/PFL/Cage Warriors/KSW etc shyt we might be in for some good fights

I doubt it tho

Bellator signed Fabian Edwards, that's a good look for them and their MW division since its really only like 5-6 deep at the top level. I think he's gonna end up being better than Leon, kinda surprised UFC didn't snatch him up first since his brother is already there.

Interesting to read that Ilima-Lei McFarlane is Bellator's second biggest ratings draw right now. Didn't expect that. I'm gonna keep it for WBSS and give them a chance for the first year.
