Elite XC can't win for losing...Kimbo gets exposed vs. Thompson, Noons won't fight Diaz, Silva gets suspended, now Shamrock fools around day of and blows a main event which will kill CBS ratings during that quarter hour

My brother just texted me; he would have watched vs. Shamrock, no interest now...I suspect a lot of casual fans are switching to football, etc.

Petruzelli is probably a tougher fight than Shammy

there's a chance Kimbo could lose this one

ken why ken......get a doc to clear him.....

Apparently word* is that Shamrock refused to throw the fight and so the doctor declared him unfit.

*word may have been totally invented by me
