The real question you should be asking is who they could be getting back from this trade?

“As long as they have nothing to lose and it deals with ****their**** smaller organization and smaller weight classes.”

What is there not to understand? 45 makes a perfectly sound statement – Zuffa is loaning out a fighter from a “non-mainstream” weight class in a low profile org. On top of that, this fighter was slaughtered by the WEC champion. So Zuffa have nothing to lose and it deals with their smaller organization and smaller weight classes.

WEC is a promotion under the ZUFFA organization right? ZUFFA own’s both the UFC and WEC promotion’s. So again I ask what 45 meant by his coment? I was curious that’s all.

Unforuntely, Fedor-Butterbean sounds eerily possible.

Andrej, I think 45 was meant the WEC when he said their smaller organization.

hotmail’s still around?

this month we’ve got UFN, WEC, the epic UFC 79 and Mayweather-Hatton, plus Fedor-Butterbean or whoever he fights, which should give us plenty to talk about.

K-1 is a smaller organization? are you daft. By the way you said it not me.

According to Sherdog, Zuffa loaned out Yahya for this fight. So i guess Zuffa CAN work well with others… As long as they have nothing to lose and it deals with their smaller organization and smaller weight classes.

Fightlinker,

Hell, don’t blame me. I just don’t have much to say about fights in Japan or Korea or wherever. I get no kick from endless Fedor soap opera shit, he’s just another useless has been who has no desire to fight competitive matches (speeches to the press aside, he hasn’t fought a competitive match in years).

And yeah, I can read and understand financials, but let’s be clear on this, nothing much changes from month to month in the IFL or Pro Elite. IFL’s been on death watch for a year, and Pro Elite’s a few bad quarters from being there as well. Unless one of them actually turns in good results, you’d better just enjoy the cards while you’ve got them on television.

I’m just trying to stay upbeat and positive, or at least on topic

Perhaps there’s some jungle fight that I could be watching on bootleg video from a server in Zagreb or something. Maybe that would stoke my generative fires. I kind of doubt it though.
