“I'm consistently blown away by the product and presentation that Bellator is bringing to the fans. I'm not nearly done competing and I'm coming after everyone, everywhere. I'm not sticking to one weight class either, I fight at ‘Gangster Weight’ and nobody is safe.”Bellator MMA President Scott Coker confirmed that the American Gangster is open to taking fights from middleweight right up to heavyweight with some huge names being touted as possible opponents.
“When we were in the process of signing him, Chael was adamant that he wants to compete in three divisions here. He already has unfinished business with Wanderlei Silva, but he also wants to fight guys like Tito Ortiz, Fedor Emelianenko and even Rory MacDonald at middleweight. These are all fights that I'd be very inclined to watch, so hopefully we can put some, if not all of these matchups together starting before the end of the year.”Although no fights have been booked just yet, Sonnen told Greg Beacham of the Associated Press that he's eyeing up a high profile light heayweight bout against former UFC champion Tito Ortiz for his return fight. https://twitter.com/gregbeacham/status/776602312609374208 If Ortiz isn't available for the contest, a certain Canadian welterweight is willing to take Sonnen up on his "Gangster Weight" offer. https://twitter.com/rory_macdonald/status/776636192523595776 Stephen Rochford chats with Colm Parkinson on The GAA Hour, heated Lee Keegan debate, and Barry Cahill is outnumbered by Mayo backers.
