Filed under: Bellator , Featured , Videos UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Gegard Mousasi ’s potential reign in the Bellator middleweight division may be short lived. Mousasi (42-6-2 MMA, 9-3 UFC) is on the cusp of a title shot at 185 pounds, the division in which he’s embarked on an impressive winning streak in the UFC before signing with Bellator earlier this year. But he is growing weary of the weight cut that gets him there. “The weight cut is too much,” he told MMAjunkie in advance of his Spike-televised headliner against ex-middleweight champ Alexander Shlemenko (56-9 MMA, 12-3 BMMA) at Bellator 185, which takes place Friday at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn
