Darrion Caldwell open to Patricio Freire fight, becoming two-division Bellator champ

Following his first successful title defense, Darrion Caldwell found himself trading insults with Bellator featherweight champion Patricio “Pitbull” Freire and it seemed like the door was immediately kicked down for a potential superfight.

However, Caldwell’s focus is more on the belt around Freire’s waist than the fighter himself.

“I just want to fight everybody,” Caldwell told Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour. “I don’t want to keep fighting the same guys that I fought. To be honest, that whole Patricky ‘Pitbull’, it’s nothing really on my side against the Pitbull brothers, I just want the belt at 145.
