Former WSOF title contender joins Bellator. 18-3 bantamweight addition.
 
Glad to see hill signed somewhere. He under performed on tuf but he did very well in wsof. A good add for their 135 pound division
 
Georgi Valentinov (20-5 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), and Vladyslav Parubchenko (16-1 MMA, 0-0 BMMA) can now call themselves Bellator fighters.

Valentinov’s signing was announced by Bulgarian site BOEC last Friday.

As for Valentinov, the 26-year-old fighter has lost just twice since March 2013. The Bulgarian welterweight’s lone losses in the stretch came under the ACB banner against Ismail Naurdiev and Ramazan Kurmagomedov.

Ukraine’s Parubchenko is riding a nine-fight winning streak entering his Bellator contract. The 26-year-old featherweight is a grappling specialist, with 10 of his victories coming by submission. Despite his recent success, Parubchenko hasn’t competed since July of 2018.
 
Great to see Bellator signing interesting fighters outside of the UFC, instead of all washed-up former UFC fighters. Now they just have to market them right and give them the right match-ups. This could be interesting upcoming years for Bellator if they play their cards right.

Bellator has added another blue-chip European prospect to its roster with the signing of undefeated former Cage Warriors welterweight champion Ross Houston.

Bellator’s European head, David Green, confirmed the news at Thursday’s Bellator Europe 7 media day in Dublin, with another top European welterweight joining the promotion’s growing lineup.

Scotland’s Houston (8-0) captured the Cage Warriors 170-pound title in October 2018 with a split-decision victory over Italy’s Stefano Paterno. He then went on to fight to a no contest with former champion and then-interim champ Nicolas Dalby at Cage Warriors 106 in one of the bloodiest wars in recent memory.

Houston and Cage Warriors amicably parted ways earlier in February, with his manager Kedu Uchegbu telling MMA Junkie that his man wanted to fight internationally.

Prior to Houston’s signing, Uchegbu said, “Our current preference is to fight in either the U.S. or in Asia on a main card.”

Now Houston is in a position to do that as part of Bellator’s roster, and his team is targeting an international show for the Scot’s promotional debut.

Not a bad signing, I felt that he was losing the fight against Dalby before Goddard had to wave it off, but he's a good prospect.

Valentinov was released for ties with Bulgarian far-right extremist groups. Parubchenko hant made his debut yet, hopefully he'll fight soon.

Recently-crowned LFA light heavyweight champion Alex Polizzi is heading to Bellator.

Figured he'd go to the UFC, excellent signing for Bellator. I think he'll be like Mix where people are wondering how the fuck the UFC missed this guy after a couple of fights, especially as he was under their noses in LFA.

I wonder what ia the deal with Mix, he is superlegit and the UFC never made a move for him. Quiet honestly, he is the future champion.

I dont know whats plans of Bellator but iam sure that Blackbeard is guy which loves challenges so if they give him someone high ranked he will accept it with big smile on his face :D
 
I hope they dont throw him to the wolves, a fight against javy ayala would be cool.
