This led to much speculation regarding MacDonald signing with Bellator MMA, given that Bellator MMA President Scott Coker stated recently that negotiations with MacDonald were going well.

Now, FrontRowBrian has confirmed in addition to FloCombat, revealing that the UFC has declined to match Bellator’s offer to Rory MacDonald, thus making him a Bellator MMA fighter.

So far no word yet on when MacDonald will make his Bellator MMA debut.
