Gonzalez missed weight for his Bellator 143 bout with Ryan Couture by 16.75 pounds, resulting in the fight's cancellation.
ANALYSIS
A grossly unprofessional gesture, Gonzalez made no effort to fulfill his contractual obligation; missing on the scale by more than a full weight class. The 18-12 Gonzalez would have made his first appearance for the promotion since his Bellator 6 loss to Luis Palomino. Instead, the journeyman fighter will return to relative obscurity on the regional circuit.
