Elena Reid signs with Bellator; prepares for title fights in two sports

Thu, 2010-04-08 09:14 — Bevois

Elena "Baby Doll" Reid has entered the mix for the Bellator women's flyweight (115-pound) tournament, which is set to begin in August. This could potentially put Reid in a field that is rumored to have the likes of Japanese supertsar Megumi Fujii, English standout Rosi Sexton, and undefeated Bellator veteran Jessica Pene. Those three women are widely considered to be among the Top 5 women's flyweight fighters and all three are dangerous submission-oriented fighters. Meanwhile, Reid is easily the most accomplished female striker to make the transition into MMA.
