UFC heavyweight Roy Nelson now is a restricted free agent and is negotiating with the promotion on his next contract, according to his rep. Manager Mike Kogan today indicated that a deal should get done before Nelson’s exclusive negotiating period ends at the end of August, when he may entertain offers from other promotions. “The length of his exclusive negotiating period isn’t really a factor right now,” Kogan told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “We’re actively talking. I’m sure it’s not going to take a few months to make a deal, if there is a deal to be made.” Specifics of the negotiations remain a closed-door conversation.
