Rory MacDonald unsure he still has ‘drive to hurt people’ after Bellator 220 draw

Rory MacDonald sounded noncommittal to a fight against Neiman Gracie after Bellator 220.

MacDonald retained his Bellator welterweight title with a majority draw against Jon Fitch in the opening round of the 170-pound grand prix. MacDonald is now slated to meet Gracie in the semifinals this summer, but it seems as if there is a chance the bout may not go ahead as planned.

After the draw against Fitch, MacDonald said in his post-fight interview that he has lately found it difficult to “pull the trigger.”

“I don’t have that killer inside,” MacDonald said after Bellator 220, which took place at SAP Center in San Jose.
