Sad thing about the Bantamweight field is that none of the participants have any real potential

Gomez is good but he’s a flyweight. The other tournaments at least provided a long look at guys with great potential. Well, heavyweight notwithstanding.

I hope Warren gets a win since I know the guy, but Soto should be a tough one. Warren can’t screw around in his guard.

^^THIS^^

Bellator does an ok job of finding good talent is different weight divsions, but the guys they picked for their Bantamweight tourney SUCK.
