(VBLOG) Bellator Signs UFC Retiree Stephan Bonnar!?!

Bellator has been in the news this week, as they released 12 fighters who were under contract, including former Light Heavyweight titleholder Atilla Vegh.  They also announced the signing of former UFC reality fighting show star Stephan Bonnar and are working on matching him up with Tito Ortiz.  Bonnar has not been seen since his October 2012 fight with Anderson Silva, and there was not exactly a huge clamor for him to return, but Bellator has apparently pulled the trigger on bringing him in.

Forget the odds, is an Ortiz versus Bonnar match even worth watching?
