Former world champion boxer Ana Julaton is set to continue her MMA career, and has officially signed with Bellator.
The Filipino-American had tried out for TUF as a last minute decision, and while she ultimately wasn’t selected by the producers, she feels like this Bellator deal ended up being better for her business-wise. Not only does her contract allow for outside sponsorship, it also lets her pursue professional boxing matches and compete often.
“When I was training under his stable at WildCard B.C. Freddie Roach would say, ‘Activity is always good for fighters,’” Julaton told Bloody Elbow on her decision to sign with Bellator.
