Don't be so short sighted ....
Fox (Rupert Murdoch) is in talks to buy out The Ferritas 80% Dana White's 9%, do you really think the UFC is going to keep growing under Fox ownership?
Bellator is owned by Viacom the Super Corporation, they have money for days....in the end it will be Fox Vs. Viacom vying for MMA fans money ....two massively evil corporations that have their hands deep in over media content being distributed to the consumers in the U.S.
Source on the potential Fox buyout?
And just because Viacom has the money, doesn't mean they think it's worth it to them to pour it into Bellator. I'm not saying that things couldn't change. Viacom could suddenly get a wild hair and give Coker a blank check. They could just as easily decide they're done with the MMA business or simply make it and even smaller priority.
In the end it's speculation, and not even speculation based on some kind of clear trend.
