A contentious few weeks between Bellator and Tyson Nam took a more civil turn today when the tournament-based promotion declined to match an offer the bantamweight received in the wake of his knockout of champ Eduardo Dantas.
“Bellator received the offer for Tyson Nam’s next fight from a new promotional group (The World Series of Fighting), and we are not going to match that offer,” Bellator Chairman and CEO Bjorn Rebney said in a statement sent to MMAjunkie.com.
“We wish Tyson good luck as he moves forward.”
