To me whats worrysome about Bellator is how very few prospect they seem to have, Strikeforce challengers always had a ton of prospects battling it out, Bellator has guys like Neyman Gracie and Yamaguchi etc.. however i feel no excitement for them because they're always being fed cans, its shocking how poor they are in comparison to the UFC Dana White contender series which has produced a lot better prospects than Bellator has in years.
Maybe you feel no excitement because you can't even spell their names.....its YAMAUCHI.....Yamaguchi was a female ice skater.
Bellator actually has some very solid up and coming young guns....
