The field for Bellator’s Season 7 heavyweight tournament is set – and the eight-man field may be thinking about a little more than just the $100,000 winner’s prize.
On Wednesday, news broke that Bellator’s heavyweight champ, Cole Konrad, had retired. It is not yet known if the Season 7 tournament winner automatically will become the new champion.
Sources close to the promotion confirmed to MMAjunkie.com the field for the eight-man tournament, which kicks off next month at Bellator 75, as well as the event’s preliminary card.
