The eye opener was the sale imo. Had the UFC not sold, they would have probably been able to get away with lowballing more fighters for longer.
When you see the company sell for 4b and you're only making 60k to show, that really opens your eyes.

Again though, the question is how much is Viacom willing to eat before they see return. I've heard that they told Bellator execs to spend what is needed, which is a good sign

Mousasi is on a 200/200 from what I've read. Can Bellator do better than that? Is Mousasi worth that much to bellator?
His last confirmed payday was at UFC 200 and was 70k + 35k. That would be from his current contract. I assume that that deal has elevators, and thus he may have made as much as 100k + 50k for his last fight (just a guess). Considering where he's ranked and the fact that he's a fairly big name in an important division, you'd think he'd want a decent raise. Bellator would probably give him 250k flat, plus he'd be allowed sponsors.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Rizin gave him a solid offer too, considering he was popular in Dream. But hey, Sage Northcutt has more Twitter followers, and that's probably what WME will base their contract offer on.

Thanks for the info. I just saw that 200/200 thrown around, so I didn't wanna put too much weight behind it.

I agree with all you've said. He's a top ranked fighter. A well know fighter world wide. He is also from Netherlands, somewhere Coker said they were planning on going.

Things could get interesting.

I'd really love to see him sign with Bellator, but I'm not getting my hopes up. If I had to bet, I'd bet that he resigns.
I think he will as well. But if it doesn't get done before Bellator can get involved, then it may get interesting. What's that, like another 30 days?

With the news that Rory made 400k to fight Daley I'm sure that Moose is going to use that news to his advantage as well.
