Havent heard of a few of the guys fighting on this card but it looks to be a decent event. Personally I think Tank and Ricco are in trouble. Im also looking forward to seeing Scott Smith fight as he has always been exciting. I hope this hasnt already been posted as I am rather pleased with myself for starting my first thread. I apologize if this has already been posted. Delete if necessary.

Looks like a solid card for an outside the UFC event. I like Elite i hope they are able to build up more and give the ufc competition.

I'm really quite impressed with this card. This is better then a couple of the UFC's as of late. I'd rather pay for this then UFC 80 or UFC 78.

The first one was considered an Exhibition fight, so it's not included.

I thought Charles Bennett was scheduled for this card?

He just got arrested (again) so I dont think he is allowed to fight. It was another domestic violence charge.

Decent fight card, certainly not PPV worthy, but decent. I think Tank/Kimbo should fight before Ricco/Silva

Looks pretty solid. Glad I won't have to pay for it, though.

is this on showtime or are they hooking up with hdnet again???

EXC is steadily improving their stables, and putting on quality shows. If they continue to co-promote, and picking off some of these smaller shows they could at the very least be a nusance to Zuffa in the years to come.

I still think that they are about to pounce on the guys that will be left behind by UFC when / if they purge talent in order to keep the TUFers around. I know EXC has a big interest in Tito Ortiz. I could also see guys like Karo, Okami, and Din Thomas become UFC afterthoughts and end up there.

With guys like Paul Daley, Jake Shields, Antonio Silva, KJ Noons, and Nick Diaz, they have good nucleus of young exciting fighters to build around.
