“I didn't agree with them, because Bellator wanted my first fight to be a rematch with Fedor Emelianenko.
I really respect him and I can't say that he didn't want to fight, but there were no negotiations with Fedor.
Bellator wanted this to be my first fight, and then under contract I would have four or five more fights.
My manager Ali Abdel-Aziz is in talks with the PFL.
Perhaps I will take part in this championship, "- quoted by Werdum BJ Penn.
The first fight between Emelianenko and Werdum took place in June 2010 and ended with the victory of the Brazilian with a painful hold in the first round.
Earlier, Fedor Emelianenko named the fighters who will replace him.
