So I would assume that would be for a title shot then?
No way
HenryO -Would allow bellator to become the feeder league wsof has been trying to becomeFeelz Good -RKing85 - I'll believe it when I see it.If true, he likely let Dana buy out his contract. He's no just gonna let one of his fighters fight in the UFC, but he'd let him go.
Although with Coker running Bellator now, I'm not surprized. No way this would even be considered if Bjorn was still in charge of Bellator.
That would be good for MMA if they had that relationship
If it's via contracts getting bought out , rather than people wanting to leave, would add more prestige to if
If that happens, it's really excited.
This would be what every ppv should look like
Coker don't want to run a ppv; wonder what it means for Tito.
Great news if true!
The good news just keep coming if true
Scott Coker turning Bellator into a great feeder company for the UFC.. Just like Strikeforce was.. should be interesting to see how many other fighters are able to have there contracts bought out.
Oontyex -That's a good point. They could greatly benefit from becoming the official #2 organization.HenryO -Would allow bellator to become the feeder league wsof has been trying to becomeFeelz Good -RKing85 - I'll believe it when I see it.If true, he likely let Dana buy out his contract.

I wonder if they can start doing trades maybe.
I know it sounds rediculous but like I'll trade you Eddie Alvarez, for 2 guys that are (2-1) int he UFC and the number 1 draft pick in the mma draft lol
That looks like a great card.
Hrrnnggg! my nipplessssssssss
Bad matchup for Cerrone considering his boxing defense.
Great fight, amazing card, but will never happen. :-(
Although from a business standpoint, it doesn't make much sense .
My Body is Ready........
Now that's a fight
Bitchin scrap. Love to see it.
caposa -If they do this card as expected they should have the prelims on big fox, the 6-9 fight are insane and would be good on FOX
A loaded UFC 178 lineup could get even more interesting, as a bout between streaking lightweight Donald Cerrone and Bellator MMA 155-pound kingpin Eddie Alvarez has been targeted for the Sept. 27 event.
Sources close to the bout who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the matchup had not yet been finalized confirmed the news to Sherdog.com. The bout is contingent on the UFC acquiring Alvarez’s services from Bellator. Negotiations are ongoing because Alvarez currently remains under Bellator contract at the time of this writing.
