Monson vs. Laijik, Eastman vs. Griffin, god damn these fights are sick.

Definately UFC caliber fights!!!!

This is the first show I haven't sent out press releases yet but this is my favorite MMA site so I decided to Drop the word here first. Plus this will be a PPV so if you use your satellite cards I will be comming to your house to collect my money! LOL

Any clue on if the PPV will be live or delayed? I will definately order!

Live oh and by the way I forgot to mention our Title Fight Referee None other than Gary "Big Daddy" Goodridge

so does this mean that there is no more XFA?

Carlao thanx that must have just happened like a few weeks ago or something. Anyway that gives me a heads up now about something that could be something.

And that is correct XFA is no more. I won't get into my reasons for that descision but yeah XFA is Done. Hence the use of Sean Thompson instead of XFA Chairman.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to be at this event... can't wait!

Sean, great looking card!!

By the way, is that why you needed Shannon's info from me?

why yes it was.

Also there will be a couple of changes to the card I will post the updated card by the end of the week.
