yes, i hope the next stop for ricco is the ufc or sf.
unfortunately I’ll believe this fight when the cage closes due to Herman’s legal battles
One of the good things about being an older MMA fan is that I can actually remember when Ricco Rodriguez wasn’t the punchline to a bad MMA joke, and was considered one of the sport’s best big men.
I know this is a big if, but IF RR can get himself all the way back, I’m thinking that maybe Dana White, a guy who is all about second chances, would give him a opportunity.
You’ll need to hit up one of those magic 8 balls to determine if Dave Herman is actually going to fight or not, but if RR can make some noise in Bellator against decent opposition, he might find himself back in the big show by this time next year.
And if you’re surprised to read this from a former RR detractor like me, just trying imagining how surprised I was ti find myself typing it…
;)
If the fight happens I think Dave Herman wins by early TKO
