He hasn’t fought there since his March 2017 victory of Chase Gormley. I get that he seems to have some sort of an “open ended” contract that allows him to fight in other orgs, but isn’t this a little long? I was particularly surprised to not see him in the Grand Prix, as it was and is lacking a full roster of true heavyweights.
He has a style that I think is intriguing for American audiences, too, because he can finish a fight from anywhere, or himself get finished spectacularly from time to time.
So what is it? Better money in Russia (probably)? More popularity abroad? Bellator just not booking anything for him?
What the fuck, Sergei?
