Bellator president proposes additional divisions in MMA

Alexandr Ormanji Oct. 10, 2022, 6:52 a.m.

“If the whole industry would come together and say, 'Look, we'd better have more weight classes or change the ones we have.' I think everyone should do it. Not only us, but UFC and ONE FC. Rizin might have to do it. I believe that the current weight classes are not fair to fighters. The guy competes in one division, and then rises, but faces a big difference in weight. I think there should be symmetry. If this question were raised, then we would support such an initiative. I think the gap between weighty categories is too big. A gap of 10 pounds is a lot. In boxing, there are only three weight categories with such a gap. So there is something to think about."

Recall that the next Bellator tournament will be held on October 29 and will be number 287.
