Course their depth isn't on par. In fact their depth or lack of actually plays in bellator favour which means they can concentrate in building and their guys getting credibility and name recognition. Of course the ufc has more depth but you can hardly keep up anymore and I think it's to their detriment. Didn't see your post but I responded to another guy about the depth of the bellator outfit..Do you mean their champions are on par? Surely you don't mean their divisional depth? Depth wise LW/FW Bellator versus UFC isn't close, ditto MW. WW might be the closest but I think current Woodley beats current Rory, despite their previous history, not point mentioning Lawler, Wonderboy, TIll etc. HW
Champion wise, DC and Jones both squash Bader, Ngannou too, the Reaper, and Romero would beat Mousasi. Chandler would lose to Khabib and Ferguson, Freire would lose to Max and Aldo, Darrion would get destroyed by Cejudo.
All of the guys you mentioned are still near the peak of their respective divisions. Bellator are doing the building and as the ufc are the monopoly they are can just poach top talent without putting in their work. It is in contrast to the ufc but it's also why some are heading their instead of being lost in the system.
