He wants to come to the UFC no doubt about it. The UFC needs to sign this guy ASAP, and if not Bellator needs to come to him with a Rory title fight to make him interested. Ben needs to fight for the UFC or Bellator title next IMO, it would be such a waste if he doesn't.
Ben could have been a star, he's confident, he speaks his mind, and he seems level headed enough. He's been finishing a lot of fights and dominating people, and he's undefeated with a very good record. He's also an Olympic athlete. There is a lot of ways to market this guy.
IMO it would be stupid not to sign him. UFC.. Bellator.... Listen up! Get your heads out of your asses and get calling Ben Askren now with a deal.
I actually can't believe the lack of interest here, I know if I worked for the UFC or Bellator I would have already had Ben signed to a contract and I'd be setting up the title fight right now. Do they not understand how to market this guy? Market him as a badass American wrestler who just smashes people like Khabib. People like a winner and that's what Ben does.
As for Bellator, I don't know if Rory would be enough to entice him but it would be worth a shot.
Dana, I know you hate Askren but you're doing the mma community a disservice if you don't sign him right now. Just my opinion.
