Ok I'd been defending Bjorn throughout this ordeal but this is just plain creepy! Eddie wants to fight in the UFC, so just let him go! Why force a man to fight for your organization. He has said repeatedly that he wants to fight for them and not for Bellator anymore. It's time to have some pride and wish Eddie the best of luck, hell they let Hector Lombard sign with the UFC, and he was destroying contenders in Bellator for years. I don't see what makes Eddie more special than Hector, who was undefeated in the promotion. This smacks of desperation and it worries me. If Bellator really feels that it has to waste time and money trying to make Eddie Alverez fight for them, then there are deeper lying issues within this organization. I think the strategy of building a brand around a few "big names" is the wrong idea. They can make new names by signing up in coming exciting fighters who people will pay to see. I hope Bellator isn't as desperate as it seems right now, because it would be a shame to see Bellator closing it's doors.......

"I don't call the fighting in my films 'violent', I call it 'action'. An action film borders between fantasy and reality. If I were to be completely realistic in my films, you would call me a violent, bloody man. I would simply destroy my opponent by tearing his guts out. I wouldn't do it so artistically." ~Bruce Lee  |
