Not quite. EliteXC is doing a sorta co-promoted show with Affliction by having Andrei Arlovski taking on former IFL Heavyweight Champ, Roy Nelson.

Perhaps this is what EliteXC needs to get some badly needed ratings when they put on their 3rd CBS broadcast.

If you've been hiding under a rock, Affliction postponed their Oct. 11 show that was to feature Andrei Arlovski Vs. Josh Barnett as the main event. But due to scheduling conflicts(i.e. Dana White doing anything and everything he could to not let Affliction put on an MMA event in "his city" of Las Vegas), Affliction re-scheduled the event for early January.

Well now, Arlovski will fight Roy Nelson on an EliteXC on CBS broadcast, Oct. 4th.

Personally, I think this is great for MMA that two big/well-known promotions can co-promote in the effort of putting on great MMA fights. You hear that Dana White? Co-promotion is not such a bad idea, freakin' money grubbin' turd!

That is all. Discuss, kids...

Right on Jay, I hope Dana White is paying attention because if Elite XC gets any momentum, they can take a big chunk outta his ass if they play their cards right between Showtime and CBS.

cross promoting is the best thing for the sport, its just a matter of time till ufc will have to do it. WAR AFFLICTION
