Chris:

Get over it.
The UFC can’t possibly have all the best fighters and there was NO guarantee that shields was going to go there. He could easily go to Affliction or Strikeforce.

What the fuck is this shit, just let them out of there contracts already, I want the UFC to get Lawler and def get Jake Shields, he has what, 2 fights left, dont matter who buys this shit, Jake is gonna end up in the UFC. Another bullshit company trying to buy this shit for what, let the fighters go so they can sign with the UFC and get some real fights.

I am depending on you Sam to give us the scoop on who purchased ProElite soon! So are the fighter contracts transferable or not?

Thanks!

I agree with William W. that would be good news if it’s Trebilcock. On the opposite end would be if somehow Jeremy Lappen is involved.

as long as the original knuckleheads are out, it’s all good. they really need to redo their entire package and stop trying to compete with the ufc. just be a smaller, separate and successful organization like kotc, strikeforce, etc…

I really hope Trebilcock has gotten the company. He has a great head on his shoulders and knows MMA. His KOTC cards are a proven formula for success (doing them on Indian casinos) and, if anything, would be a fantastic way to continue the ShoXC shows.

Why are they so tight lipped about who is buying them unless they a publicly traded company ??

Was wondering what was going on with this, good scoop.

No watch a half a dozen websites try and play it off as their own…
