    Mousasi goes to Bellator - bad choice

    If Mousasi became UFC champion, he would get paid way more than what Bellator will pay him. Bad choice on his part going to Bellator, I think he could've become UFC champ. But he didn't want to take the gamble. Now we'll never know.

    Could be a good move for Mousasi.

    To some extent, Bellator covers travel expenses, accommodations & other things most fighters pay out of pocket which the UFC does not.

    It makes me more interested in Bellator that's for sure. I like watching Mousasi fight, good move for Bellator.

    Good for Moose I guess. Moose is one of my top 3 favorite fighters.

    Mous vs Rory is basically a UFC fight.. I do think Mous beats Rory Mac though..

    That will be a solid Bellator title fight one day!!!!

    he's probably getting better money to go fight cans in Bellator than tough fights he would have in the ufc. He can finish the 6 fights in 2 years time and resign with the UFC as the bellator champion after all the BS in the UFC's middleweight division blows over.

    He will probably make 100 thousand a fight just in advertisement and endorsements. Great move and bad move for the UFC.

    Good move. Less competition and making more money more than likely. Hopefully Bellator continues this rise and we get solid cards. Would love to feel good about watching high level fights on Friday and Saturday
