i'm starting to look at the "rumored" fights for the next affliction event and they seem pretty limited. i mean that we're going to see the same guys fight over and over. they have to start bringing in other talent or some exciting up and comers if they want to stay around. i'm just curious if this is a 3-shot deal and then they're gone.

i noticed that also. i think they will slowly be getting alot of fighters from the UFC and EliteXC and all the others orgs. ive heard alot of fighters complaining about the UFC lately, and Nick Diaz complaining about EliteXC. and im sure they saw what the fighters in Affliction are getting paid. so i dont think it will be long before guys lookin for new contracts will be ending up with Affliction.

That was the drawback for Affliction. They can only go after the free agent fighters or the ones that arent in the ufc that don't has big fights of their own coming up. That's why you see the same fighters on the second card as you did the first. How many more times can we see Sylvia lose?

well if Fedor is off the next card, then they are really going to be limited. They better hope that they can finalize Tito, he might be the only big name left out there that can make the card fairly big

They are going to be limited, and Tito is going to shine because of it. There is no way that they can put up top tier 205ers against him at their events, so he will look good again. But we all saw what kind of fighter he really is against the best
