I ain't really a fan, what's he said? Is it irreparable or just the sounds of a dissatisfied fighter in negotiations.
He's been complaining about pay for well before his deal was up.

I'm not saying he is wrong but he has been pretty vocal that fighters in the UFC aren't paid enough. I'm hard pressed to think they offer him enough to satisfy his number compared to Bellator

That knee by MVP looked bad, but I had no idea it would be that devastating :wow::sadcam:

Lima got a solid win in the main event, I still favor Koreshkov in the rematch but it should be a more competitive fight if he's not injured going into it.

Diet Pitbull is stepping up to LW to challenge Bendo :patrice:. He wasn't a big FW to begin with, don't see it going well for him in that fight. The winner facing Chandler for the LW strap makes sense :ehh:though.



We might not be far away from Michael Chandler having successful title defenses over Josh Thomson and Benson and Eddie Alvarez fighting Will Brooks for the UFC strap

Bellator has no other WW prospects at a similar stage that they can match MVP up with?

Brennan Ward? Bellator was building him up and then Cyborg made him tap in like 30 seconds. Then he just got thrown in jail for assaulting a police officer while drunk. I think MVP vs Ward is still a likely match to be made in the fall.
