Dave Branch vs Anthony Johnson is a great match-up for a regional main event. Titan FC has been signing some talented vets to main event their cards and are working well with the top promotions to provide credible bouts that get fighters back to the big show.
Good to see Dakota Cochrane jump back into competition after a close loss in his opening round TUF appearance to James Vick. After all the media he received over his past, it must have been a lot of pressure to be heaped on a ONE ROUND fight.
The calls for Pulver to retire from MMA for two plus years have not made this signing any easier to figure out. Cage Warriors have been doing a great job at signing prospects and the occasional vet to bolster the European MMA scene and give it some credibility in comparison to other promotions, but this one is edgy. Pulver has a right to earn a living at his chosen profession...I'll just leave it at that.

Apparently, Resurrection Fighting Alliance has been making some moves that went under the radar. The Joe Stevenson and Bubba Jenkins signings of multi-fight contracts completely slipped past me, but they are both great additions to the roster for RFA. Hopefully the move to the regional scene will reignite Stevenson's career and the Jenkins signing is a good move even though I'm partial to Tachi Palace Fights. From the prospect perspective, the move shows that he's not getting caught up in holding just any belt and is willing to learn the nuances of fighting in different areas of the country.
