I’m going to make the early prediction that there will be some kind of bad event in relation to the fans.

Just don’t see this card going off without a hitch.

i find it funny how it’s in nick diaz’s hometown, and scott smith lives near there

i bet that place goes crazy and it sells out fast

I like how the card is shaping up, but in all honesty I have my doubts as to how respectful that crowd will be. Not that I have any specific reason, I just get the feeling I’ll be getting annoyed at some misplaced booing.

yeah and for the first time it’ll be a pro diaz crowd hahahaha if it isn’t then idk where there would be one

I am mad that the Stockton event doesn’t include Diaz fighting Noons for the title. They should have held off having the event in Stockton until that lil p*ssy Noons accepted the fight.

Hopefully the crowd behaves themselves and Stockton becomes a regular venue for EliteXC to hold events.

This is a way better 2nd card.
This one will keep fans and acquire new ones.

Nick Diaz is going to go crazy.

Print it.

So if I go get a ticket, do they pay me to take it?
