Rory MacDonald made MMA News headlines when the former UFC title challenger made the transition to competing mixed martial arts promotion Bellator MMA. Since then, MacDonald has gone on to earn a dominant submission victory over Paul Daley in his Bellator debut and is now set to face off for the promotion’s welterweight title. With that in mind, the fighter recently made an unexpected offer concerning his pay.
Bitcoin
As previously reported, MacDonald recently revealed that he believes being paid in the cryptocurrency known as Bitcoin is an attractive proposition for the fighter. Now it would appear that “Red King” may be getting his wish.
