Just some updates in case people haven’t heard. Newly-minted Royce Gracie black belt Buddy Clinton will be taking on UFC vet and master of international pimpstyle Shonie Carter on November 20th at King of the Cage in California. Clinton has appeared and won in KOTC several times, and this may be the one to finally bump him up to UFC match contention. Check out www.kingofthecage.com for pay-per-view info on the event.

Also, the talented Carlo Prater of Yves Edwards’ Third Column will be defending his Freestyle Fighting Championship welterweight title against the tough Keith Wisniewski at FFC XIII on December 10th at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi, MS. For more info go to www.ffc.tv.
ALSO I originally forgot, Machado black belt Travis Lutter will be taking on Mark “The Wizard” Weir in Lemoore, CA on October 21st at World Extreme Cagefighting for the WEC 185lb championship. And don’t forget, Tra Telligman, Guy Mezger, and Evan Tanner are fighting in UFC 50 on Oct. 22nd, and Yves Edwards is taking on a great lightweight bracket at Euphoria MFC in Atlantic City on Oct. 15th on his quest to cement himself as one of the best lightweights anywhere.
Good luck to all of them in these upcoming fights.
