The Bellator MMA fight announcement at Bellator 123 on Friday of the Tito Ortiz VS Stephan Bonner looked like something we usually see in pro wrestling. Ortiz VS Bonner can be seen Saturday, November 15th live & free on Spike TV.
On Monday rumors started circulating that Bellator MMA would be the new home of legendary Gina Carano, since then owner of Bellator Scott Coker has denied that rumor but other sources say it has indeed been in talks. While we wait for those answers however I’m sure this morning’s announcement will hold us over until then. It was announced this morning that the newest members of Bellators 145lb decision are none other then long time WMMA standouts Marloes Coenen & Julia Budd. http://www.bellator.com/articles/bellator-mma-sign-julia-budd-marloes-coenen
I don’t know about you but I think that’s huge and for what it’s worth I think Coker is a smart business man. The UFC’s main women’s division is the 135 division with Bellator focusing on the 145ers Dana white and Scott Coker won’t have to be chopping at the bit for female stars. Further more this indeed puts Bellator right up there in completion with the flagship of MMA that is the “UFC”.
What do you guys think of this announcement, and what 145er would you like to see in Bellator next?
