Rory MacDonald was surprised — and not too happy — when he found out he wouldn’t be headlining Bellator 192 against welterweight champion Douglas Lima after all.
Bellator president Scott Coker announced last week that a first-round heavyweight Grand Prix bout between Chael Sonnen and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson will instead top the card. Coker is considering the two bouts a “double main event.”
MacDonald said he won’t let the decision get to his head, nor will he continue to think about it, but at first, he was “disappointed” about the main-event switch.
