News Ex-UFC featherweight Kai Kamaka III rejoins Bellator roster

He's fought in Bellator before so he's familiar with the team. He'll be 27 soon still relatively young. Not a bad signing could still end up being a good fighter. Was probably too inexperienced when he first signed with UFC.

Too inexperienced? He got robbed his last two fights. It's one of the worst cuts in UFC history, especially considering the fight with Brown was a war.

G'luk Kai!

I'll be tuning in!
 
On the one hand it was a poor release based on the judges decisions, but on the other hand if you're going to be anything special you probably shouldn't be having close fights with Danny Chavez and TJ Brown, but it is what it is.
 
How about him vs Askhabov? The winner can fight someone ranked like J-Train or Kennedy

I dont think Kamaka is on that level, tbh. He is a fun fighter but he is more in the John de Jesus, Enrique Barzola, or Aiden Lee category, IMO.

Kinda harsh to put Barzola amongst them when he's easily the best of the bunch and gave Evloev all he could handle.

Kamaka is in a weird spot. He's got the fundamentals down, but that's pretty much it. Doesn't really have the qualities or style you'd expect out of a Hawaiian fighter not named Brad Tavares.

Barzola is the better of the bunch but also he is not the most exciting guy around. I, personally wouldnt have signed him but I guess he brings depth. Kamaka is a decent fighter who will bring some fun fights if matched with the right opponent. I dont expect a championship run from him.
