Interview: Mercedes Terrell talks life with Bellator, worst part of being a ring girl

After spending some time as Miss Supercross, Mercedes Terrell signed on as Bellator MMA’s very first ring girl, and has been with the Viacom company ever since. From overseas cards to double-headers, CEO changes and everything in between, Terrell has been a promotional mainstay for nearly ten years.

Bloody Elbow checked in with Bellator’s premiere ring girl to find out how she got her start with the company, her thoughts on the Bellator 215 & 216 double-header, as well as her prediction for future superfight between Bellator’s featherweight champion Patricio “Pitbull” Freire and their lightweight champ Michael Chandler.
