Bellator has signed another great up-and-coming fighter to it’s roster and this time, we know the guy pretty well. Ryan “The Real Deal” Ford (who we interviewed here) is now an official member of the company’s welterweight division.
Ford is expected to debut in October in tournament competition. The winner of that tourney will receive a title shot at Bellator Welterweight title holder Ben Askren.
Ford is on a four-fight winning streak and is 8-2 in his last 10 bouts.
