5 fights to make Ben Askren come out of retirement

ONE Championship: Immortal Pursuit
He is semi-retired from professional MMA

#4 Rory McDonald

UFC Fight Night Open Workouts
Mcdonald is an exceptional striker

Rory McDonald is a Canadian mixed martial artist and the current Bellator Welterweight Champion, he is also the training partner of MMA legend GSP at Tristar gym.

The UFC vet is one of the best welterweight prospects in the MMA world and a great matchup for Ben Askren.

Mcdonald is an exceptional striker with great heart and a phenomenal wrestler with excellent takedowns and slams.

A matchup between these elite fighters will be a treat for the fans and big money for the promotion.

Rory and Askren have earlier had multiple verbal sparring sessions in the cyber world and they have consented to a potential matchup.

Now it's up to the matchmakers to create favorable conditions for these titans to test their mettle against each other.

Bellator CEO Scott cocker is pretty negative about a possible matchup between them and said the gap between Askren’s desire and business reality was very wide.

We still have reason to hope as Askern can easily smash two opponents real fast and get out of the contract with ONE FC real fast once he comes out of his semi-retirement.
