Please lose Frank Trigg at the event..I speak proper English but don’t understand a word he’s saying.
If he punched as fast as he talks he would be world champion…

Sega,

Big John was a good ref no doubt. My problem is he became an opportunist prick with the rise of MMA. Good for him taking advantage but bad business move. He should have stayed a ref. It was less than two months ago he took shots at the UFC and it was obvious he had a new “employer.” It seemed at the time he was trying to hype up another promotion (Affliction). People don’t have a problem with the fighters…..it’s the way promotions present the fights. Elite XC presents dancers, midgets, rappers, and Gary Shaw to take away from the fighters making the events a circus. Affliction even managed to fool some of you, who I know….KNOW your MMA…..into thinking they are different and the next big thing. Affliction is presenting part of the show free in hopes to gain PPV buys at the last second. It’s karma for dirty business tactics with the UFC. Affliction also signed MegaDeth to hype up the show. That was a direct result of the UFC announcing Anderson Silva’s move to LHW….a bigger dose of karma. Affliction and Elite XC have some great fighters but the presentation and depth of talent are no where near comparison to the UFC. I love ALL MMA but yes, I am a UFC NAZI.

Segablack & Curtis

I couldn’t agree more w/ your comments…I am suprised by all the UFC nazis here, I also like how some people are jumping BIG JOHN’S arse for working this event when they know damn well that they miss the guy reffing UFC fights! I do that’s for sure. Also why are people dwelling on how Affliction is going to keep putting quality cards together…my opinion is WHO CARES! that’s Affliction’s problem isn’t it? I could care less if they go under ’cause that’s just a better chance their fighters could get signed by the UFC see there is a bright side UFC nazis!!!

there signing tito and randy in a few months

as well as david loiseau and trank trigg possibly soon, lutter in a few months.

Belfort vs Tito 2 would be a good fight.

They are def putting some big names on the card! I am shocked at the amount of people that could care less about it.

First off, I like jpm’s idea, but I think it should broadcast via live stream on youtube or somewhere. Second, anything other than the UFC has to promote their show as the biggest thing ever in MMA, just to get a little attention. I think that there will be quite a few buys on this first PPV, but it will be hard, if not impossible, to ever promote another card worth paying for. Unless, they can steal some really good fighters, picking up the scraps won’t do it.
