There is no easy way but if it was meant to be, he/she might come back to you at a later time. If not, then it wasn't meant to be at all.
Good luck to you my dear

Hopefully Affliction can slide into CBS' MMA slot and bring their "Fighting Fedor" program with them. It really is a natural fit and CBS will have the top fighter in the world, along with the credibility that goes with that. Very good point. Plus there are a lot of expectations for the Emelianenko vs. Arlovski fight on Jan. 24 that will also feature Lindland, Nogueira and Sobral. I also think that the only way for an Org "other than UFC" to survive is to capitalize on PPV...I'd love to see Affliction's new strategy on that... I dunno. Without the mass telvision coverge, I don't know how enough people will know that there is a PPV. Affliction's first PPV had a bunch of buys, but there is no guarantee their next event will. They really need more exposure to mass audiences. Hopefully something can be hammered out with CBS. Apparently CBS haven't soured on MMA, only on Pro Elite. CBS was in a position to buy the company and chose not to, which is why Elite went belly up. Do you post on Sherdog at all? I think that the correct answer should be a balanced network/PPV strategy (hence Spike/PPV for the UFC) but what’s very significant is to mimic the marketing powerhouse approach from the UFC. If you think about it, these guys steadily grossed $200+ Mil on PPV every year since 2006. That's a very good chunk of money. Elite failed with Showtime dramatically, making them lose money on every show plus their website also failed to deliver what was expected to be a "must stop" for MMA junkies. I'll tell you an inside tip (I'm going to hell) CBS is starting their own MMA company and I personally think that they used Elite as a test run. I don't think it's fair but Welcome to the ****ed up world! Another thing that Elite should've learned is to keep their fighters under strict NDAs like the UFC does. If you remember, Petruzelli made some outrageous comments on Radio after the fight that I believe contributed to adding more fire to the already delicate situation. We'll see what happens! but whatever it is, the new emerging players are certainly going to learn from Elite's failures! I usually don't have the time to post at all but I'll take a look at Sherdog! Thanks mate I think you'd like Sherdog. There are a lot of fighters that lurk on there. Occassionally they'll post but not as often as they once did. Bas Rutten for example has thousands of posts there, but he rarely posts now. As for your comments about Elite XC/CBS, apparently CBS was set to purchase the company but like you said, Seth Petruzelli's comments regarding being asked/told to stand with Kimbo and the subsequent investigation is what made CBS back out of the deal. Elite XC simply had no credibility after this last show, so why would CBS want to buy them out of their mess, when they could just start with new MMA programming. I thought Elite XC was starting to take form, having better shows, ironing out the kinks in their prestentation, but the money dried up, even though the ratings kept increasing. I'm confident CBS will air MMA - it just won't be Elite XC. 100% with you. Thanks for the tip Mate! I'll check it out. Cheers everyone! |

And a Bob Sapp/Kimbo Slice match up would be HILARIOUS. ...more than a "Shamrock/Kimbo"??? LOL Even more hilarious than what Shamrock did that caused him to not fight Kimbo 
Amen to that

Not sure what they did (or didn't do) to accumulate a debt of 60 millions in their short period of life...David Marshall and
Doug DeLuca were never fit to manage that Company. Remind me to put an obituary for them... My only concern? Gina Carano...when and how can I see her in action again!!! Hope Dana White will open up the UFC to female fighters (wishful thinking!)

As you probably noticed mingle2's site went through some upgrades/updates yesterday and I'm guessing since you both experienced the same it could've been an embedded bug of some sort...
Just a word of advice...I think that acrobat reader is too loaded and takes on too many resources on the local computers. I recently switched to Sumatra .pdf. Their client is light weight and it seems to me like it doesn't interfere with anything else plus it’s free and it opens up much quicker than adobe's. Foxi is also a good alternative. Hope this helps! http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/ http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader_2/down_reader.htm |
