@Segador80 
they won’t give him a contract, he might be able to get a short notice call because he likes to fight often and will take fights on hardly any notice Dana likes that

Ramon tough, solely chose Sidey cuz he does more than just box. Thought it was pretty funny tho that Ramon was the guy that was in that clip going around of Bennet saying he had a long chin at weigh ins then preceded to get his ass slumped haha
