Rumble all class about UFC during his interview in Bellator earlier. Dana talks shit.
Also, since when does Dana cut a fighter of that caliber loose because they might pop? If he did pop, we would know it by now. We wouldn’t be talking about him fighting early next year. Dana also doesn’t mind keeping fighters under control while they are on suspension.
He probably didn’t have that many fights left in his deal, 2 or maybe 1 and Dana knows he doesn’t have the guns at LHW right now to have him in a disadvantage to lock him down to one of those 8 fights deals. In fact, Rumble would be a heavy favorite against each and every one of them. So, let him go..imply something and let the shills go to work
