Not long ago he was whining that he got matched up with Chael. At first I thought “Get over yourself. You’re in MMA. You have to fight wrestlers sometimes.”
But recently I realized, Rampage’s career is done. He’s not trying to become a champ. Not even a Bellator champ. He has 2-3 fights left probably. We all tune into Rampage fights hoping to see him or his opponent land some bombs. So why waste even one of his last few fights putting him in there with a guy that just wants to ground and hold.
If he wants to slug and that’s what we all want to see, then just make his last few fights with strikers. Bellator, I love thee, but you’re wasting the end of a career.
