UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Scott Coker doesn’t understand why Anthony Johnson is disappointed in himself. The Bellator president disagrees with Johnson (23-6 MMA, 1-0 BMMA) on the rating of his debut with the promotion Friday at Bellator 258. Johnson was disappointed and heavily critical of his performance in his knockout win over Jose Augusto in the co-main event on Showtime. The former UFC title challenger got an impressive second-round finish, but was wobbled and dropped in the first round prior to the stoppage. Although Johnson now advances to the Bellator heavyweight grand prix semifinal against champion Vadim Nemkov, “Rumble” labeled it a “piss-poor” and “dumbass performance.” “I don’t feel like that at all,” Coker told reporters at the Bellator 258 post-fight press conference.
