ProElite/EliteXC Is No More…

Due to increasing financial woes, ProElite/EliteXC has offcially gone under.  Also called into question was the no shoot bonus supposedly offered to Seth Petruzelli prior to his fight with Kimbo Slice.  Personally, I blame Ken Shamrock.

Let’s hope the WEC adds a women’s division.  Gina Carano needs a home!
