Bellator Lightweight contender, Eddie Alvarez, says that his contract with his current promotion, Bellator, is getting close to expiring and would not mind testing the free agent waters to see who can offer him the best for he and his family, the UFC or Bellator.
Bloody Elbow Radio was live Tuesday afternoon to recap the weekend in MMA. We also chatted with Bellator 40 competitor Lloyd Woodard and Strikeforce Challengers 15 winner Lorenz Larkin.
