From what I understand they are not giving him fights.
Still more of a money issue than anything. Here's Minakov talking about it in late January-
"Whether I defend or not will depends on the company Bellator, which is now being negotiated for improvement of our contract. I think everything is possible. And the fact that they have not played in two years of my absence, even temporary championship belt, speaks volumes."
"By and large, I am not concerned where I fight, whether Bellator or the UFC. I have the desire to fight in the United States .The main thing is to respect me as an athlete, and offer the conditions that I really deserve."
- I would hope they work it out, cause he's a great fighter. But it's been long enough that if they cut ties with him, I wouldn't miss him.
