Some MMA notes:
– Reports are that after a series of knockout losses, that Sean O’Haire has given up on fighting, kickboxing and pro wrestling.
– There has been no talk whatsoever about a Hero’s event in Las Vegas. The original plan was to do a show in February with Brock Lesnar’s debut, but the last word we got was April or May at the earliest.
– Regarding Bob Sapp, who is trying to get his K-1 contract thrown out in court this
week, the two most likely destinations for him are still WWE and EXC (Showtime’s MMA group). EXC has a very strong contract on the table for him if he can get out of his K-1 deal.
– The complete EXC (Showtime) line-up for 2/10 is:
Frank Shamrock vs. Renzo Gracie
Joey Villasenor vs. David Loiseau
Wesley Correira vs. Antonio Junior Silva
Gina Carano vs. ?
Charles “Krazy Horse” Bennett vs. K.J. Noons
Bo Cantrell vs. Tim Persey
Seth Kleinbeck vs. Riki Fukuda
Adriano Pereira vs. Javier Vazquez
Mike Pyle vs. Ross Ebanez
John Shackelford vs. Edson Berto (the son of pro wrestler Dieusuel Berto)
