The ratings say otherwise. Fans don't want to see UFC Lite or any cheap knock off of the UFC because they have the UFC. Bjorn Rebney, apparently not a good person according to certain fighters, in 6 years of creating Bellator by keeping cost down and making a profit on a limited budget, got fans attracted in Bellator because they were intrigued by seeing so called "fresh talent" like a Pat Curran and Patricio and Patricky Pitbull Freire and Michael Chandler and Darrion Caldwell and MVP and David The Caveman Rickels and seeing Eddie Alvarez in a American MMA company that was stable. Bjorn Rebney gave Alexander Shlemenko a chance to become a legitimate Champion in Bellator, let MMA fans become aware of Alexander Volkov and Vitaly Minakov. Had the great story of Blagoi Ivanov coming back from near death from a stabbing. Bjorn Rebney's Bellator allowed Douglas Lima a chance to grow and gave a young Andrey Koreshkov a American MMA outlet and had a dominate champion in Ben Askren. Coker's talent is who exactly? No one he has built going on 5 years now. He bought in Mousasi and Rory MacDonald. Mousasi arguably lost to Alexander Shlemenko and Rory MacDonald struggled mightily against Lima, but instead of facing Koreshkov next, Coker nixed that and Rory MacDonald still hasn't defended his title. Bader is in a heavyweight tournament that didn't include Bobby Lashley, a wrestler, Justin Wren, a wrestler, Augusto Sakai, now in the UFC, and Cheick Kongo, puzzling that he wasn't in it. The perception that Coker has more talent is because he has his talent avoiding fighters or puts together squash matches. The ratings are factual proof that Coker is doing a awful job. Another is the fact that Bellator on it's own merit hasn't turned a profit since Coker was named President of Bellator.
