Melvin Guillard says Conor McGregor will 'end up biting the UFC in the ass'

Aljamain Sterling isn't headed to Bellator, but Melvin Guillard believes we'll start to see more free agents leave the UFC in 2016.

Guillard has seen it all. The veteran lightweight has over 50 professional bouts and spent nearly a decade with the UFC between 2005 and 2014. After a two-fight stop in World Series of Fighting, Guillard signed with Viacom-owned Bellator MMA last May.

The consensus No. 2 promotion managed to lure away former UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson and Guillard doesn't sound surprised.

"I've watched Bellator grow," Guillard told MMA Fighting.
