[heckyl]

lets see how many of them are signed for a fight by the time the event gets here. im always skeptable (sp?) when DSE announces names for an event. especially Fedor Emelianenko.

They have been marketing this around where I live in California.
What area do you live in? They might have just not been marketing there yet.

Josh Barnett needs to get a new license from the NSAC. Not easy after what went down with his suspension a few years ago.

Chicago. I also don't have cable, so that's probably a contributer as well.

Also, PRIDE needs some new fucking fighters

I think he just has to re-test and not have drugs in him.

You obviously haven't heard of Alex Lungru, future of HW div IMO.

Technically I think he does but there was so much bitterness over his ban and the way he and most particularly Matt Hume dealt with things that I wouldn't be surprised if a few 'unforseen' obstacles cropped up.

For some reason I thought you were referring to that other fat ass. Y'know, the one who beat Thompson in CR
