Congrats Shonie….I bet you’re going out to spend all your winnings on purple suede suits and ostrich skin boots. When are you headed to Elite XC?
Shonie is awesome for the simple fact alone that he fights in a banana hammock. Who the heck would want to lose to a guy wearing that! lol
from a sherdog post
group of investors led by Dana White have agreed in principle to purchase the UFC from Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta for an undisclosed amount. Included in this investment group is WWE’s Vince McMahon who will now own a minority stake in the company. They also have plans on taking the company public by years end.
At the press conference also expect Dana to announce that with the help of McMahon, who has extensive connections in the New York State Athletic Commission, they were able to get the UFC sanctioned in New York, and plan on having a show sometime in the winter at Madison Square Garden. That is all I have right now.
