Bellator Middleweight Champion Geghard Mousasi admitted that he was not eager to fight against Yoel Romero.
“Nobody wants to fight Yoel Romero. Why should I fight him? I hope Manhoef will beat him and I won't have to cross paths with him in a cage (laughs).
He suffered four defeats in a row, but still remains a very dangerous opponent, so a fight with him will not give me anything. But if the leadership decides to organize this, then I will accept the duel. I have karate skills on my side, so I will beat him,” Musashi said in an interview with James Lynch.
Mousasi will defend his belt against Austin Vanderford on February 25 at Bellator 275.
