Can USADA make Bellator the place to be?

[VIPERdude]

YES NOW BELLATOR PAYS SHIT BUT.......OVER TIME........
You have to agree USADA is making the UFC difficult to be an active fighter.

Also consider, NO REEBOOK and sponsorships are welcome again....

Not only that, UFC's starting to lose money from the suspensions of fighters, to altered events at the last minute. Fighters lose a pay day over something as small as a tainted supplement.

Put aside the fact "cleaning the sport up is a great idea" The USADA banned list is so confusing and ridiculously long I would like to know who thinks the possibility that Bellator looks to be a safe haven now since they do not use USADA testing.

My opinion is that over time, (starting with Rory Mcdonald) maybe now Mark Hunt? and other fighters that have already jumped ship the pay would get better and so would the roster. I truely believe Bellator is looking to be a good place to go right now if a fighter wants to continue using supplements they been using their whole life that now can fail them in the UFC.

Can the fighters eventually get tired of this and go fight for Bellator, where it would feel like the UFC of old.

No. Bellator has no money and no popularity.

 

[Cage917r]

Bellator does pay their fighters shit outside of one or two guys. So, no.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

If you're a piece of shit cheater. Sure

 

[FedorGOAT]

I don't think fighters at the bottom of the barrel with 15K/15K type of money are taking thing. It needs lot of money for designer steroids which can help you bypass the tests.

When rich fighters like Jones & Brock are getting popped, then their is nothing that make me believe that fighters like Thomas Almeida, Nikita Krylov, Ben Saunders are taking anything. They just simply can't afford it.

They've had their share of fighters pissing hot too.

 

[GordonMMARamsey]

What if Rory signed with them and was fighting at 205 2 years later? UberRory ftw!

 

[Clippy]

The place to be a cheater, yah

 

[The guest]

And there it is.

For all the fighters that want to cheat. And all the fans that want to see cheating fighters. There is a place they can go.

Seems like a perfect solution.

you obviously didnt read the post. If they got the likes of Mark Hunt and other big names from UFC over time, it can be. Fighters are going to get tired of getting popped for GNC supplements, or the toothpaste they used the night before. They get pulled from the fight over that they miss a pay day....Then they are fighters who make 0$ at least Bellator they are guaranteed a pay day

 

[shaffmeister]

No

IDC...I want to see a fight. If seeing Jones vs Cormier woulda happened without that USADA flag bullshit over an estrogen blocker then why not

 

[VIPERdude]

No

yes. USADA will kill the UFC. You get pulled off your fight you aint making no money. Guaranteed fight at bellator, they gotta feed their family. I guarantee Mcdonald, Mitrione, Phil Davis etc are not the last to be going to Bellator

 

[Cygnus-X]

If Bellator overtook the UFC they'd eventually just land in the same place UFC is now on this issue.

 

[VIPERdude]

Lmfao

discuss. You find it funny, so explain intelligently, if you can (no disrespect) why do you think USADA isnt killing the UFC?

Coker said they have thier own random testing and wont ever need USADA

 

[Air Lats]

No Reebok at Bellator should be a big part of your argument, TS, IMO.

No. Bellator has no money and no popularity.

I agree, even though the Bellator ratings were higher on one show against UFC's fight Nights in 2015
