Patricky Freire calls out Melvin Guillard, but says Bellator isn’t interested for now

As soon as former UFC star Melvin Guillard signed with Bellator, long-time Bellator veteran Patricky Freire went on Twitter to call him out. It looks like the promotion isn’t interested in the match-up for now, though.

"I tweeted that I wanted to welcome him to Bellator, but my manager Jorge Guimaraes got a text from someone at Bellator saying that they wouldn’t book this fight now," Freire told MMAFighting.com.

"They said that they want to build him back up, since he’s coming off a loss. They didn’t say exactly that, but that’s what they meant.
