Too much show, not enough substance for Elite XC/CBS show?
I'm just wondering how everyone else felt about last night's event, (
(disregarding the garbage that was the Lawler / Smith and Kimbo / Thompson fights altogether.)
Personally I just felt there was way too much show and not enough substance too it. Basically it came down to 3 hours of television for 30 minutes of actual fighting. I could have done without the dancing cheerleaders and the ridiculously long ring walks and introductions. I know there is some point to having Frank Shamrock spend 15 minutes explain MMA and its terminology to the newbie viewers but for anyone else, the whole show just felt dragged out. I was really hoping they might throw in a fight or two from the undercard but that didn't happen
On an unrelated note, did anyone else notice how often the UFC/Pride and its fighters were mentioned to try and draw some type of credibility to Elite XC? Something you would never hear while watching a UFC event.
