Bobby Lashley is the only fighter on the list not currently employed by the UFC, which makes his inclusion a bit problematic: should Lesnar return, is there really a chance he would fight in Bellator? They do have the money to sign him, however, as they are funded by Viacom, who own Spike TV, MTV, Bellator, and a lot of other properties. In fact, they've got far more money than the UFC - the question is, will Bellator get to play with any of it? As for Lashley, unlike the other call-outs on this list, his was respectful. Per Lashley, on Ring Rust Radio;
I think one of the biggest fights he could have is me The crazy part is I have never even come face to face with Brock. I dont know him and I have never met him. We just have always had a lot of comparison so this time give the fans what they want. Brock and I would beat each other up pretty bad but we will walk away very financially healthy Our styles match and we wouldnt over do the other person since we have the same styles. It would be a very strategic match and I like the match up
