Major signing Roger Huerta signs with Bellator for season two lightweight tournament

With the big announcement just moments ago that Roger Huerta has signed to fight in the lightweight tournament for Bellator, it is very clear that this organization has big plans in store for this season and coming seasons.  Bellator has had a very fast upcoming in the MMA world and I for one think it is justified as they are one of the most exciting and true forms of competition in MMA out there.

MMAjunkie.com first reported the expected signing over the weekend, and during a press conference that today streamed live on bellator.com, Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney made the official announcement.


Huerta one of Bellator's highest-profile signings to date, joins the season-two eight-man lightweight tournament field. His first fight takes place at Bellator 13 on April 8 at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla.
