Rory MacDonald didn’t even wait for Bellator 200 to air in North America. He was on top of things.
Just minutes after Gegard Mousasi called him out following his middleweight title victory, MacDonald responded on Twitter accepting the challenge. MacDonald, the Bellator welterweight champ, wrote to Bellator president Scott Coker and matchmaker Rich Chou that him against Mousasi “is the fight to make right now.”
@mousasi_mma congratulations on you dominant victory, @ScottCoker @rich_chou i know you wanted a title defense from me before challenging at middle weight.
