Topic: Pro Elite/EliteXC getting bailed | |
---|---|
So ProElite Inc., the parent company of EliteXC might be getting bailed out from being $50-some million in the red by none other than SHOWTIME Cable. Word thru the "Jake-vine" is that Showtime will pretty much buyout the fledging MMA promotion. They already own 20% of ProElite anyways.
Wonder what kind of changes they'll make as far as production and staff go. Discuss, kids. |

Well... for one, they better keep the fights showing on regular cable. If they only start showing on showtime, then i think the company will only fall farther.
They need to get better fighters then Kimbo Slice. Nothing against the guy...but its all the company has as a big draw. If he loses, then they really have no other fighter to fall back on. |

He only fights on when STRIKEFORCE and EliteXC co-promote. But yah, they need to bring quality fighters to fight guys like Jake Shields and Nick Diaz and Antonio Silva. |

big foot lol over rated and diaz, dont like him or his brother, but just my 2 cents I don't think Silva is top 10 by any means, but as the promotions Heavyweight champ, they gotta supply him with good competition. Did you not see Nate Diaz win against a quality fighter in Josh Neer last nite? And Nick Diaz is still waiting for that pansy BJ Noons to grow some balls already. Yes, I call Noons BJ cuz that's what he must be doing by not defending his title. |

yea but it shows how bad there HW division is when heis the champ, yea i saw diaz win, but he didnt impress me, his hits have no power, there like slaps, he has a triangle but thats all id give um, penn,guida, pulver hell even uriah faber who is lighter i would put money on to distroy him in the first round. i think its his attitude i dont like.
