so everyone does this mean ROAD FC is evil now? You know since everyone seems to hate WSOF and all who are affiliated with it even though ROAD FC's owner stated he doesn't like ZUFFA

WsoF has also signed Emi Fujino but just like Michelle Waterson she is getting zero fights. WsoF is more worried about these press releases and announcements than actually carrying through with what they announce. WsoF makes me sick to my stomach.

I don´t think they´re evil. Many people were pissed of because WSOF made Pancrase switch from ring to cage but this is not happening here since ROAD already uses a cage. What do you think?

Hopefully WSOF hasn't bit off more than it can chew. They've yet to do anything with Pancrase and it already seems to have its hands full with their Canada branch. It'll be cool once we get to see guys like Ford, ISAO, and Nam in WSOF, which I would hope is what we eventually get with these relationships.

That deal was announced by dare, NBC sports never confirmed the deal, plus I think dare is going under, their January show was cancelled

Great news. Pancrase, WSOF, and ROAD FC all working together. I just wish Pancrase would go back to the ring and ROAD FC would go to a ring.

She did. Was the first female signing. That is the point. WsoF made a huge deal then did nothing with her. Just like now they are doing nothing with Fujino or Evans-Smith. Like usual WsoF blowing smoke up everyone.

The first women contracted by the company was Jessica Aguilar, they negotiated with hottie, never signed anything! She went to invicta

And Fujino vs Agulair is horrible match making. Just signing women for one shot at the belt and dropped like a sack of rocks. Fujino should earn the title shot since Aguilar is number 1 in world and Fujino just fell out of the TOP 15. WsoF is a sham and horribly ran org. Almost worse than Zuffa. and that is saying alot.

Mark my words. Fujino will be submitted then never fight for WsOF again. PLUS the whole reason Fujino signed with WsoF is to fight state side. Does no good to fight at WsoF japan show.

As another fighters she was on the roster, the company was over a year without launching and all the talent became free agents, before wsof1! So I'm not wrong

I agree the switch from cage to ring sucks that's not Pancrase to me, it made me sad since it was my favorite Japanese promotion after PRIDE top 5 favorites of all time. But it was also their decision to switch they said they were going to do it even before WSOF came knocking that is my take on it

If WSOF had nothing to do with the switch to cage and if they have no connections to Zuffa I have no problem with them. Do you think they´re a Zuffa feeder league or do you think WSOF want to compete with the mafia?

Very hard to tell on one hand they give away great fighters. but on the other hand M-1 made a statement saying that they are happy when fighters go to the UFC because it proves they are legit I think that opinion is misguided WSOF also has some fighters who didn't leave on the best terms with BBF and the Mafia bros so its very tricky.

I´m waiting before I judge WSOF but I don´t like their college football statement. I´m really pissed of at M-1/Vadim btw. If they want to be a feeder league they could might as well go away from the mma scene.

The mma scene needs strong promotions, not feeder leagues.

Just to be clear! Since the birth of wsof only 2 fighters from their roster have moved to zuffa, both after their deals ran out, they don't have an out clause like titan, invicta, mfc, legacy all of them but wsof not!

Rumble Johnson moved to zuffa after his 3 fight deal ran out and the other fighter is Hans stringer who only had a 1 fight deal with them

WSOF might be ok but that Aziz guy needs to stop talking if they want to make it big. Are they the world Series of mma or some college football feeder league like he said. The fans need to know asap.

Big mistake to let Aziz open his mouth. If they´re planning to be a Zuffa feeder League they need to go away from the mma scene like all other sell-outs.
