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. from a sherdog post

I was commenting on KOuch's post not yours. Your post I agree with completely. :) Seems you and I are the only one's know like Kimbo for his spirit and humbleness rather than looking at what his promoters have done.

Not only am I a big fan of MMA, I am also a big fan of Boxing and I read on Maxboxing.com last Friday, Mayweather just recently officially retired from boxing on last Friday. If the reports of Mayweather signing with UFC are true, It makes since now, why Dana White says he has some news that would rock the MMA World! THIS IS HUGE!!! BREAKING NEWS:

As I said, they put on some great fights and have great fighters. I just wished they leave out some of the other theatrics in their show production. That's all I'm saying! DannyBoy,

I mean have ANY OF YOU SEEN PRIDE??? DREAM???? K1????? They all have idiotic ceremonies they go through. Having rappers and dancers does NOT make it WWE. That statement is ridiculous. We watch MMA to be entertained... and guess what... the fights are what entertain US...but what about the others who aren't quite as into it as we want them to be? That's what the dancers, etc pander to...to help grow the sport. PRIDE & K1's opening ceremonies are many THOUSAND times more ridiculous that the EliteXCs just was. Please people...put things into perspective. I do NOT like having to sound like an EliteXC cheerleader...they are nowhere near perfect. Rappers and Dancers????? I mean have ANY OF YOU SEEN PRIDE???

I agree completely. You just have to remember Gary Shaw is a boxing promoter who knows nothing about MMA and promotes MMA in the same disgusting fashion he did boxing only now it seems he threw in a little WWE with the rappers and dancers as you mentioned. So what we have is, a MMA promotion run by a boxing promoter with a fetish for the WWE. Jai,

Simply ridiculous. JAI may seem like he works for EliteXC with some of his comments, but he is correct in almost everything he says (I don't agree with Antonio Silva...he's disappointing). Until all of you begin supporting an MMA career for Kimbo (whether you like him or not), you can't call yourselves true MMA fans...because his cinderella story IS LEGIT. How do you think this sport started? It started with stories like Kimbo's + Martial Arts gyms wanting to compete with each other. I'd say at least 10% of MMA fighters were once kids in school or on the streets who got into fights and happened to be good at them. I know from watching TAPOUT that it seems like almost every single one has that story! STOP HATING ON KIMBO. KOuch, I thought you knew better than that...i've enjoyed your comments for quite sometime on this site until now. And yes, I'm beginning to sound like a broken record... why? Because all of YOU are sounding like a broken record... get over it already... EliteXC is most likely here to stay.

I am 6'6' 300 and if I saw Kimbo coming at me I would hit him with my car. He still has raw power no doubt. Any given day anyone can win.

If they stand up with him, he's got a chance! Hopefully by then, if it ever happens, Kimbo would have developed a ground game.

It would be a Leon Spinks type rise and fall.
