No shit. Rumble v Yoel is money.

 

[Kos Fan]

Bellator picking up Yoel and Rumble in the same week would be huge.

 

[Slatersan]

They mustve actually watched his fights and not just saw his wikipedia.

 

[Mesos]

Romero should do PFL, he would have a very good shot at winning the Milli prize

 

[MCS]

If you built your reputation around having the most talent without hype then Romero is still a guy to always get. Or if you want to make cards better, maybe boost ratings for younger fighters then Romero is also a guy to get. He is the best MW to never win a belt and is still performing at a elite level at age 43.

 

[gatorbear]

Huge if true

Why not signing him ? Romero is still a big name in the MMA world and got lot of fan, he would sell ticket.
Maybe because he have only 2 years left and that he is a little bit expensive ? Bad move from Bellator.

 

[tehMoose]

Coker please sign him, there are a bunch of fun matchups for him in Bellator

Yoel vs Mousasi
Yoel vs Rumble
Yoel vs Nemkov
Yoel vs Tokov

Because of the virus, they're not selling tickets right now. That's probably why.

They just stated their initial disinterest as an attempt to drive down his asking price. It's pretty standard. People shouldn't read to much into it.

Bad move? We are still waiting for them to make a move bro.

Romero is twice the fighter Rumble is (overall career and skills).. Don't know why they would even hesitate to sign him. Stop fucking around and sign the man already and get him a fight!! Time is ticking

Romero being twice the fighter as Rumble is a little overboard.

 

[Zebra Cheeks]

It’s funny. Another org could have signed rumble, Silva and Yoel. Missed opportunity

 

[Dreyga_King of Sherbums]

I knew they were bluffing.

You weren’t fooling anyone Coker

 

[Matt Conley]

If Bellator brought him in just to make fun fights that have zero to do with the rankings then I'm on board. If he wants to win a belt I'd say don't sign him.

Dunno if any organisation could have afforded all three.

Just trying to get the price down

As an mma fan I get it.

As a businessman I don’t. When you have an opportunity like this, you do what you have to do to make it happen.
