Kharitonov not signed exclusively to Bellator, interested in Fedor or Minakov fights

Russian heavyweight Sergei Kharitonov revealed that his contract with Bellator is not an exclusive one and that he is open to fighting in RIZIN against Fedor.

Though Sergei Kharitonov struck an unexpected deal with Bellator several months ago, it will not limit him from competing in his home country for various other promotions or sports.

Accoring to Kharitonov, the Bellator deal was particularly appealing because it offered far fewer restrictions than the UFC contract. However, despite Bellator referring to his deal as exclusive in their press release, Kharitonov confirmed he was free to compete elsewhere.
