Really.
Why would any young prospect sign with Bellator right now?
They will either fight in the prelims, or will use as mismatches against some semi-top "supestars", like Thomson and Daley.
And if they dare to win a "superstar" fight by some crazy chance, Bellator will bury them in prelims like forever - like they did with Burley, who beat Jenkins.
Has any of the fighters that participated in Bellator 149 earned something extra for being in the "legendary" event? I think on the contrary...Vassell has the most important win in his career, and no one will care.
If I were a young fighter making my way to major leagues, and too inexperienced for the UFC, I'd try my luck in WSOF or Asia.
