Quick Update On ProElite Auction
MMAJunkie.com reports that the auction for ProElite will happen in Los Angeles later this month and all "tangible and intangible assets". Unfortunately or maybe not, this includes contracts of the fighters currently signed to EliteXC.
The sale will include contracts with a number of EliteXC fighters, including Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson, Gina Carano, Jake Shields, Robbie Lawler, Frank Shamrock and many others.
I expect Kimbo to take a huuuuge pay cut. Maybe we’ll see him on season 10 of The Ultimate Fighter, but that’s highly unlikely. Dana white has expressed interest in Jake Shields and I wish WEC or UFC could start a women’s title even if it’s at a single weight limit. Again not likely to happen.
From what I’m reading, this looks to be a package deal though so I doubt if it will be bought up by Zuffa. If they are auctioning off contracts then there may be a chance that a few of these fighters may get bought up by the UFC or WEC.
