Bellator welterweight champion, Ben Askren, has recently opened up on the market as a free agent.
His boss at Bellator, Bjorn Rebney, has stated he’s not all that interested in re-signing his champion and instead will help him pursue his dreams of fighting GSP.
Whether true or not, Askren isn’t hesitating and almost instantly threw his name in the hat as a replacement for Johny Hendricks, should Hendricks withdraw from his bout against GSP.
