Curtis Millender fought in Bellator and went 2-2

Yeah, I’m sure UFC cuts are offered the “he improved” courtesy if they win a Bellator fight.

Rank stupidity.

Bellator has great fighters.

Moussasi steamrolled Weidman but had trouble with Alexander Shlemenko in Bellator.

Scott Coker knows how to scout for the best talents, just as back in Strikeforce when he signed many of the talents that became UFC champions and top contenders (e.g. Cain, Cormier, Bigfoot, Overeem, Rockhold, Cyborg, and I'm sure I'm forgetting a tons more).

That's not at all what happened in the that fight. He got taken down repeatedly and controlled on the ground. It looked like the momentum shifted and he was about to light up Weidman up when the knee shenanigans happened, but we were robbed of a definitive outcome in that fight.

Bellator usually picks off name UFC guys after they are shot.

When this is not the case yes they are given credit, like when Barncat was tearing shit up in Bellator.

He was super young in his career and fought tough ass dudes. Been so long so many fights later. Isn't even fair to see he is coming from Bellator right away, really isn't.

Totally different fighter.

Sure, guys got a couple of losses, but he's clearly got potential.

I'm interested to see how he does against the best in the division.

Always like to see a competent striker join the UFC.
