It's already been demonstrated that cards without Kimbo or Gina but with relatively (at least moreso than Reis) guys like Lawler and Scott Smith still fall well short of acceptable viewership. Basically, they NEED kimbo and/or gina on their TV cards or they won't be doing many more shows on CBS.

This was a great event! EXC needs to have shows of this caliber on CBS so the casual fan can see that EXC isn't just Kimbo and Gina! I agree with all of you! This was a great event!

I thought Reis v. Cullum was fight of the night, though. Malaipet v. Douglas was very entertaining, but the level of skill in Reis v. Cullum was higher, imo.

Reis is good champ but Cullum got a new fan now. i place this fight next to Torres vs. Maeda for the fight of the year. Amazing Reis vs Cullum was great non-stop ground fight !

Hopefully people were able to watch the show. Tarzan vs Malapeit, Jara vs Santana, and Reis vs Cullum were really good fights. This was a really good card.
