    Well that's promoter 101. But I hear that Coker was apprehensive in making the fight, and Rory was insistent on making it happen. I think Coker would have preferred Mousasi to have a routine title defense and Rory fight in the Welterweight tournament.

    They definitely need to showcase their homegrown talent more no doubt. Pico and Lima/Koreshkov III just wasn't enough.

    It might have ruined some of the Bellator hype around Rory, but Gegard could and should be there star for now.

    Maybe start and built some hype around McKee - and make him the 'future' star of the promotion. MVP might have the starpower, but i doubt he has the skills when of if he ever steps up in competition.

    Yeah McKee and Pico have a ton of potential to be stars. Page is a coddled fraud. I'll be surprised if he gets past Daley.
