Dana White is the President of the UFC and is certainly a controversial figure in the world of MMA. Dana White was also previously accused of an ‘illegal crime’ in Las Vegas.
Gable Steveson made a name for himself after his impressive performance at the Tokyo Olympics, where he won the gold medal in the 125 kg freestyle wrestling category. Since then both WWE and UFC have been interested in signing Gable Steveson to a contract.
However, now it seems another MMA promotion has set its sights on the 21-year-old. CEO of Bellator MMA Scott Coker recently spoke to MMA Junkie and revealed that Bellator MMA has been in talks with Gable Steveson for a while.
“I can tell you this, that we’ve already been in touch with his management,” he said. “I do know that he has a couple years left of school and wants to go back and wrestle. There’s dialogue going on, but he really wants to wrestle right now. If he wants to come to MMA, we’ve love to have him here. Nobody builds athletes from wrestling or ground up like we do. I think we’re the best at it. I think we’d be a great home for him.”
