I don't think Eddie Alvarez, Jake Shields, Robbie Lawler, Paul Daley, Ninja, Villasenor, KJ Noons, Yves Edwards, Hector Lombard, The Snake, Suganuma, Feijao, Antonio Silva, Frank Shamrock, Nick Diaz, Wilson Reis, Nick Thompson, their entire womens devision, are B/C level talent.

I'd say about 6 of 7 of those are A level fighters right now

Not including their womens division, which is TOP notch, only missing a few elite fighters like La Rosa.

Another thing people are overlooking is that they have a bunch of YOUNG MMA prospects, more so than other orgs. In a few years, some of their fighters will be huge in MMA. Its like if Carwin or Valazquez were fighting in EliteXC, people would say they are nobodies and are C level fighters, but because they are in the UFC, they are future stars? Makes no sense to me.

I don't know why people think EliteXC has NO talent.
They have some good talent, and most of it is YOUNG, which is a GOOD thing.

Agreed! I didn't even watch the first one due to lack of interest. I'm looking forward to this card.

Chances are the first card would have flopped if Kimbo or Gina were not in it, yet the MMA fans criticized Shaw, EliteXC, and CBS. LOL, now that they give us what we want, it may flop. Looks like they knew what they were doing, somewhat.

I'm probably going to be disappointed, but I really hope they don't have those stupid dancing girls. It's embarrassing.
