Quoteworthy:

“Less than two years following the formation of ProElite, Inc., the group notified employees and fighters Monday it was shutting its doors effective immediately…. ProElite was an entertainment and media company founded in partnership with Showtime Networks and spearheaded by the mixed martial arts promotional brand EliteXC. Representatives for ProElite, EliteXC and Showtime did not return calls for comment.”

Wow … this is a major development in the sport. The author of the article, Josh Gross, is a reliable source so we’re inclined to believe it is accurate. Stay tuned for more details as we attempt to collect more information.
