Elite-XC Is Quality

Since Aflliction came out of the gate with guns blazing the promotion has been hailed by the hardcores as the second coming of Christ. It seems that the Red Headed Step child of MMA promotions, Elite-XC, has been largely ignored. This past Saturday we saw a great production and a showcase of some amazing talent on the EliteXC Saturday Night Fights. I thouroghly enjoyed the broadcast and was excited about most of the matches on the card. My only gripe would be Justin Eilers getting a crack at the EXC belt. I was expecting the welterweight title fight to be a war, but Jake Shields is just on another level. This is why interpromotional fights are the thing dreams are made of to fans of this sport. As of right now the UFC wont play ball with any company they dont own, so that is something that will happen a long time down the road. In the meantime Elite continues to grow and hopefully make some money in the process so that they have something to offer in terms of interpromotion. A new female star was born in Cyborg Santos who fights just like her male Chute Boxe teammates. I cant wait to see her in action again, even if they dont let her fight Carano on the next SNF in October they should have her on the card for sure. This broadcast was way better than the last edition, but unfortunately had only half the audience. The production values and the pace they kept this time around showed what SNF could be, and I hope that we get to see more from them.
