I wish EliteXC could make stars out of good fighters, but it never seems that easy. They certainly blew it on the KJ Noons-Nick Diaz rematch. But they were really up against the wall with this Kimbo fight, so there wasn't much else they could do.
I think the jump to CBS came too soon. They had two marketable fighters (Kimbo and Gina) and no back-up in case either of them lost. At least they now have Christiane "Mrs. Cyborg" Santos, but I still think that they would have been better off sticking with Showtime.
If EXC dies, I hope that Showtime at least keeps ShoXC around. I don't know what kind of ratings they get, but I certainly enjoy them.
