EliteXC held a media conference call yesterday afternoon for their upcoming fight card scheduled on November 10 in Texas.
On the call, EliteXC President Gary Shaw announced that the promotion will now officially add three new weightclasses. The new weightclasses will be 140 lbs, 150 lbs, and 160 lbs in addition to the existing 170 lbs, 185 lbs, 205 lbs, and 265 lbs divisions. Shaw said that each weightclass will crown a champion over the next year.
The 160 lbs division, which will be called the “lightweight” division will feature its first title match on the Nov. 10 card when Nick Diaz fights KJ Noons. Much speculation was made when the 160 lb title fight was announced and many assumed that EliteXC was catering to Nick Diaz and “creating” a weightclass just to offer him a title fight. Shaw said that the new weightclasses are being added for fighter health and safety and that he will approach the athletic commission in the near future to have the new classes officially sanctioned and recognized.

Its a hiphop mixtape, me and some of my buddies, half collaborations, half diss tracks about each other heh.
[quote comment="11047"]what mixtape is it?
And yea i think the fight will be somewhat of a chuck/babalou 2 scenario when they were just throwin punches trying to kill each other but in this one somebody is gonna get their head knocked off. And im hoping its wandy, mainly because i want chuck to win this fight, challenge rampage again with/or without the belt. THEN retire!!!![/quote]
Wow… got that whole Rocky 3 fantasy movie line in your head ehh…. 2 problems with that.. 1 WAND 2 REALITY … Wand via KO round 1

YEA WAND TO GET KO’D IN THE FIRST
yea B i got that mixtape and it is NICE!!! dirty felicia LMFAO im sorry Michael Jackson LOL!!! everyone who likes hip-hop at all needs to download this and listen to it everyday. i love beef man that when you get some of the best sh*t.
oh yeah and Wand by full on molestation! i think Wands aggressive style will keep Liddell from getting off much like Jardine accept i think Silva will throw more punches more often and clinch up and use knees and elbows witch makes me think it wont go to the judges.
hehe good stuff RJ, you know the time like big ben.. hehe. Ya dirty felicia, how funny was that! lol

I have to agree… the fact that Wand is agressive but doesn’t OVERCOMMIT like Babalu did, (Babs was just stupid for going in like that on Chuck and it not being his fortay) will allow him to keep Chuck off his timing and distance game, and at the same time will set up for some bombs and the clinch game which we have seen his old training buddy Anderson Silva display beautifully.
