ProElite to Broadcast Second Show on HDNet, Kraniotakes to Face Sylvia

News

After Pedro Rizzo had to withdraw from his bout with Tim Sylvia at next month’s ProElite show in Illinois, it looked like the card had hit a bit of a roadblock. The front office at ProElite wasn’t too worried it appeared as they had something bigger on the horizon: the company have agreed to a deal to broadcast their second show on HDNet while also welcoming a new broadcast team of Michael Schiavello and Frank Trigg to the mix.

Good news was coming in droves for the company as they were also able to secure Andreas Kraniotakes as Sylvia’s new opponent. Kraniotakes comes into the event with a 12-4 overall record with three straight wins.

ProElite’s second card will take place in Moline, Illinois on November 5th. Also featured on the card will be Andrei Arlovski vs. Travis Fulton and the second professional bout for Reagan Penn.
