Until these other orgs start turning a profit, they're not much of competition. They need long term viability to knock Zuffa off the top of the mountain.

Here is the current fight card for the Affliction: Banned event:
* Fedor Emelianenko vs Tim Sylvia
* Josh Barnett vs Pedro Rizzo
* Ben Rothwell vs Andre Arlovski
* Aleksander Emelianenko vs Paul Buentello
* Matt Lindland vs Fabio Negao
* Renato Sobral vs Mike Whitehead
* Savant Young vs Mark Hominick
* Brett Cooper vs Mike Pyle
* Ray Lamaza vs Justin Levens
* JJ Ambrose vs Patrick Speight
Dam that is a stacked card I can't wait for it to happen. Oh I know Patrick Speight by the way he's going to clober this guy I know it.

Unfortunately theres no fighters on there who really sell PPV's to the American audience, not to mention they're paying the fighters an estimated 6million

40-50 for one fight seems pricey if that rumor is true , but the card looks awesome

WOW, best HW lineup in a looooong time. This is almost as good as what the UFC did with the LHWs at 84. Depending on how the fight goes either has the potential to be card of the year imo.
