    New Light Heavyweight Anthony Johnson: I Don't Want to Fight for Bellator, Just UFC


    Esther Lin, MMA Fighting

    By Ariel Helwani - Video Reporter and Writer

    Jul 17, 2012 - Watch below as former UFC fighter Anthony Johnson talks about why he finally decided to move up to light heavyweight, when his 205-pound debut will take place, his troubles with weight-cutting in the past, why he turned down a contract offer from Bellator, being on the outside of the UFC looking in, his attitude, and much more.

    Even when I'm 100% certain of a fight outcome, I'm only 75% sure... and of that, there's only a 50/50 shot that I'm right.

    Too many people prefer the blue pill... me, I prefer the red pill.

    The problem confronting the world today is that the world is full of ideologues who are more concerned with promoting their ideology than dealing in the facts.

    Good, honest interview. I hope he can get his shit together and make the weight! He needs to be back in the UFC and by knocking back Bellator it sounds to me like he's been told get sorted and you'll be back.

    Never fear, inevitably we shall have our years of failure, and when they arrive, we must reveal tolerance and sanity. No matter the days of anxiety that come our way, we shall emerge stronger because of the trials to be overcome. That has been the philosophy of the Rangers since the days of the gallant pioneers.

    I wouldn't think there would be an issue making 205 for him, but you never know. I hope Zuffa brings him back, he could instill some much needed life into the LHW division.
