Sheesh, what a bunch of idjits -- they're wasting at least two headliners on this card with Arlovski and Barnett.
Talk about blowing up the bottom line.

I couldn't agree more. Is it a great card. Definitely. Will it likely make ANY $$$? Doubtful. Is it good for the long term sucess of the organization? Probably not based on the other organizations that have failed recently.

Now that's a fucking card. Cant wait to see Savant back, Lindland lose any more ridiculous rankings as the #1 MW, and Paul KO Aleks.

Is AA confirmed?

Also, does anyone know if Affliction will be held in a cage or ring? ...or HEX !?

Re: Inside MMA Talks 'Affliction: Banned'

the AA fight was not among those that the affliction guy on inside mma confirmed...so i think they still have some work to do on that one... i'm 95% sure i read that it will be in a ring....can't remember where, i read so much stuff...but i'm almost sure of it....
