I haven't got round to watching it but I am reading bad things on mmajunkie and on here so I think I might give it a miss.

it wasn't bad, a couple of the fights where good. The championship one was good until the stoppage, carano is pretty good and i like kimbo (but i don't think he would survive in the UFC). Its not up there with UFC and what not, but it wasn't bad.

ok so here's the deal... Elite XC is so very obviously rigged.

I'm extremely glad not to be the only one. Its almost like they were much too worried about excessive violence on prime time. The network failed and Kimbo will lose to ANYONE in the top ten. So glad I called the Villasenor fight. Couldn't stand the guy at first but the more I watch, he is pretty well rounded. Thought he would win by submission but I'll take that TKO.

Some fighter Gina Carano is... She's failed to make weight for her last 3 fights!

Carano defeated former Hook n Shoot champion Kaitlin Young on EliteXC: Primetime on May 31, 2008.[6] On May 30, 2008, a day before the fight, it was announced that Carano failed to make weight for her fight (140), after weighing in at 144.5 lb. She agreed to take a 12.5% "show" purse deduction which will go to Young, and the fight remained on the card.

Despite most MMA organizations setting weight classes at 135 (Bantamweight (MMA)) and 145 (Featherweight (MMA)) pounds, EliteXC opted to create a women's weight class at 140 pounds. Many people have speculated this weight class was "designed and created especially for her by Elite XC with the hopes that her size and lack of formidable/veteran opponents with the intent on building the reputation of Carano as the face of women's mixed martial arts.

Regardless, Carano has failed to make weight for her past 3 fights at EliteXC: Primetime, EliteXC: Uprising and EliteXC Destiny.

Stick to Gladiators... Crush!

It's already been discussed Zoom.. but thanks for dropping by days later to tell us the same thing again. We already know about the weight issue.. but you can't deny that she has some incredible talent, she destroyed Young who was supposed to be her biggest challenger.

    • Brave Browser 1.91.168

      By Copernic · Posted

      Brave Browser 1.91.168 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By SystemX2 · Posted

      Thanks to some of the other recent Windows improvements, I'm optimistic about this one. My quick wishlist would be: perf like the older menu, merge both menus or at the very least, the older menu should be a flyout, not a simulated click to the old menu, and lastly, a customization window to let users move items from one menu to another, so I could bring Send To back to the main menu, and the OneDrive settings to the older.
