    Saw his HCF fight and wasnt impressed but depth in the HW division is always a good thing

    Hague should do very well in EliteXC. He definitely had an off night in his HCF bout with Petkovic and I expect him to avenge that loss at Raw Combat: Redemption. Tim definitely deserves the shot in EXC.

    Great news! This should be a good boost for EXC’s sorely lacking heavyweight division!
