Bellator FC Signs Lightweight Star Roger Huerta

After a weekend of speculation as to what Bellator’s big anouncement on Monday would entail, it ended up being what everyone had anticipated. Former UFC lightweight fighter Roger Huerta has signed with Bellator and will compete in the promotion’s season two lightweight tournament.

“El Matador” will carry a 21-3-1 record into the tourney, though he is coming of back-to-back losses to Gray Maynard and Kenny Florian under the UFC banner.
