Filed under: Bellator , Featured , Featured Videos , News , Radio Highlight , Videos Bellator has made a number of notable free-agent signings in recent months. Welterweight Lorenz Larkin is among them, and of all the new names to join the Bellator ranks, he could make one of the biggest impacts in his division. Notables such as Fedor Emelianenko, Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva have reached the climax of their respective careers or were well beyond that point by the time they signed with Bellator. Larkin (18-5 MMA, 0-0 BMMA), meanwhile, has seemingly yet to reach his ceiling, which means his best work could still be on the horizon under the Bellator banner. It took several months for Larkin to reach terms with Bellator after he completed his UFC contract with a dominant first-round TKO of Neil Magny at UFC 202 in August. He said the Bellator deal was finalized in a recent 40-minute conversation with Bellator President Scott Coker, and “The Monsoon” said he’s happy to be with a company that will treat him like his best days are still ahead
