Bellator signs 12-0 Pietro Menga

[chunglii]

I've been wondering where he's been. Hasn't fought since 2014

He was set to fight on ICE 14 for a tune up fight this weekend. Bummed we didn't get to see him perform but glad he'said stepping up to the big leagues.

He was to face Time Elliot in the UFC almost 3 years ago but he missed weight and didnt fight in the UFC.
Since then he is 0-4.
I just saw his name as a win for someone fighting on the cage warriors card.
Crazy
I remember talking this guy up. Wonder what happened.

“My Christmas gift was getting cut but it won’t break me,” Menga said. “I’ll fight in Europe somewhere versus some top opposition around February, March, then again if I have to and hopefully earn a rightful contract with a bit more notice than 12 days. Gutted, but this setback won’t stop me from achieving my dream and light up that division.”

Menga, who has primarily fought at flyweight over his 13 professional bouts, claims the weight cut was made more difficult because he was looking at bulking up to 145 for an upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter.
