They "lost" Rory. Rory got obliterated by Mousasi, drew a 90 year old Fitch, beat Lima but couldn't walk out of the ring that night and lost to Lima. He didn't have a great run at Bellator and finished up weak at the UFC. I guess for Bellator that is a loss though. It's good when you are declining or your heart isn't into fighting you can go to organizations and make a great career and a lot of money for yourself. Look what Askren was able to do.
dude, Rizin struggles to have a fair fighter stack. are you kidding?
That doesn't mean the org is dying dumbo.
Bellator definitely doesn’t see it as a loss considering they never offered him another contract.
They probably overpaid to get him. He was declining when Bellator got him. He's still declining now that he left Bellator. You can train yourself to be a highly skilled Mixed Martial Artist but you do get to see in fights who has the heart of the very best. I also think with Rory he doesn't do any one thing great and that hurts him. Khabib goes to his wrestling and GNP, Usman goes to his wrestling, Izzy, his standup etc... It's good to be well-rounded but at the same time to have a specialty. Even Jones uses his standup with a kick heavy attack to take advantage of his reach.
Rory kinda lost his value while he was over there TBH. They obviously chose to not give him what he wanted. They had their Bellator champ beat him so they got what they wanted.
they dont have enough fighters. why dont they buy shooto or pancrase?
Lol at an English pussy dissing an American wrestler.
