EliteXC Cancels Sept. 20th Event

August 18, 2008 |

EliteXC has apparently cancelled their scheduled September 20th event. The EliteXC event was to take place at The Pit in Albuquerque, New Mexico and air live on Showtime.

Bouts slated for the event included Bao Quach vs. Wilson Reis for the EliteXC 140-pound title, Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos vs. Yoko Takahashi, and Paul Daley vs. Lyman Good. Joey Villasenor, Dave “Pee Wee” Herman, and Alberto Crane were also all set to fight.

No reason for the cancellation has yet been announced. Low ticket sales is probably the likely cause. EliteXC was criticized for its decision to hold the event, which featured little, if any, big name fighters, in a 18,000-plus capacity arena.
