At the Bellator 250 virtual media day, Jake Hager discussed his current contract with the promotion, his love for Donald Trump, and his thoughts on Andrew Yang.
Check out highlights below:
On if this is his last Bellator fight:
This isn’t my last Bellator fight. I originally signed to a six-fight deal with Bellator at the end of 2017. We’ve got plenty more to go and I’m very happy with Bellator. They’re really good to me, giving me everything I need to grow my brand and become a mixed martial artist that they can be proud of.
His thoughts on Trump:
I love Donald Trump simply because he loves America. He loves the American people. He wants my children to have freedom. He wants my children’s children to have freedom. I don’t think you can say that about who he’s running against … I think he’s been doing a hell of a job and will continue to do a hell of a job. America will definitely be better off with another four years of it.
His thoughts on Andrew Yang:
I simply tagged him into that tweet because he had mentioned talking about the independent contract status and how WWE does that to so many of its roster. I just added him in there since they were talking about how great their business was. I really hope there is change. If I was a politician, I would definitely go across the aisle and talk to these people. I have no problem with it. I think Andrew Yang is a young up-and-comer and I know a lot of people back him. I really do hope he can create change but I also wish he was a republican.
