When I look at what Bellaton has done in the past year it`s really awesome. From signing UFC stars, bringing back old stars, working with Rizin, signing great prospects like Jarod Trice and Joey Davis, the future looks bright.
I love the fact that Scott Coker seems to have made Viacom realize that spending more money is the way to go. They have established stars and mixing in these new signings is great for their future. Michael Page could be the future of the welterweight division.
I think the Reebok deal has been a killer for some MMA fighters and from the sounds of fighters like Rory MacDonald being able to actually have a relationship with the higher ups is important to some fighters. The UFC has done great things for MMA, we wouldn`t be here right now on this site if it wasn`t for them but lately we are starting to see a bit of a shift in intent with some fighters.
It`s great to see and I hope it continues. Bellaton puts on great shows and it will only get better.
