These are cool, I always appreciate them.

Maybe you could add people who get cut to the transaction wire? Its related, and seems as important, if just in a different way.

thanks, glad you appreciate them.

I try to follow as many mma news sites as I can throughout the week to find any info possible concerning transactions. It seems like the UFC isn’t making many cuts recently and I haven’t been able to pin-point the reason why. Could be that with Bellator’s record over the last year of signing really good prospects and former UFC fighters, that they’re just holding on to them in case Strikeforce needs more talent, or a fill-in fight. Considering Dana’s conference today, he’s implied that he’s itching to sign more for Strikeforce, and I’m sure he’d like to have been able to sign guys like Ben Saunders for SF instead of letting him go to a competing promotion. I’m hoping Dana does get more involved, and fast so that the SF rosters aren’t so stagnant & thin. Without the HWs around taking up the bulk of the promotion’s money, I think a lot more fighters will be signed – even in the 145/135 classes.
