Jeff Curran entered 2010 on a path back into the WEC, but it didn’t work out as he hoped.
While he waited for the organization to give him a specific date, Curran ended up taking a fight for Bellator in April, because he needed the extra money. Curran surprisingly lost the bout, eliminating any shot he had at one of his biggest goals for the year.
“[Fighting] is my only way of making a living,” Curran said Monday on The MMA Hour. “I don’t survive off my school. I actually support the school off of my fighting, so I had to stay busy and tried to do something … and when we looked at the original matchup it was a great matchup.”
