Report: EliteXC to do away with dancers, other spectacles on July 26 CBS card

According to MMAOpinion.com's account of what Mauro Ranallo said on Fight Network Radio yesterday, EliteXC will be doing away with its extracurricular diversions (dancers, fireworks, etc.) at the July 26 Stockton card airing on CBS. The reasons mainly have to do with time and financial constraints.

Here's what Ranallo said, according to the report:

"...that is all going to be gone come July 26th. They're definitely going to put more on the fights themselves for a variety of reasons. One is economical and the other the being the fact that the show went over its alloted time by 51 minutes."

I don't mind the little

I don't mind the little filler while you are waiting for the fighters to enter - especially when the commentary is so bad (I love Rogan, but he can get on my nerves when he gets all over a fighters nuts and gushes about how great they are). But if it causes the fighters to take longer in between fights that's when I think it's stupid. I dont see it being any different than the half time show or in between quarters when they have the kids do some stupid thing.

Well, it'll be a better production. Whatever their public rationale, they're learning.

Good. They might turn into a real org after all! Smiling And one that hears the fans. (But gives different reasons for changing things up.)
