Gina Carano vs. ??? would still get my money. And this is coming from a guy that hates womens MMA.

If they put all of their top talent on the same card and joined up with Strikeforce for a co-promotion, then they MIGHT be able to come up with a PPV worthy card:

Noons vs. Diaz II
Cung Le vs. Frank Shamrock II
Melendez vs. Thomson II
Lawler vs. Ninja
Brett Rogers vs. Silva
Shields vs. Baroni (or try to sign Nick Thompson)
Kimbo vs. ???
Gina Carano vs. ???

I think they could be successful at a lower price point, say 24.99. Load the card with Kimbo, Gina, Frank/Ken, etc., cut down on the BS and sell it cheap.

I order pretty much every mma ppv, but EliteXC wouldn’t get $40 from me. I can’t believe anyone would pay to see Kimbo fight.

I might pony up for the right Carano PPV, but she wouldn’t be fighting.

“If I were them, I would sign Jason Miller. He is colorful and a pretty good fighter.”

Expensive and doesn’t ko. I’m pretty sure he will stay in Japan.

Elite has the right idea, build up their stars on CBS.

If they are smart, they will hold off on PPVs until next spring or so. If all goes well, the CBS shows should have established some of these guys by then.

While we might not see Lawler as a ppv fighter, the general public might after a couple more fights on CBS.

If I were them, I would sign Jason Miller. He is colorful and a pretty good fighter.
