    Good news for the fighters that they get some cash back. It must cost serious dough to lay out all training expenses in advance.

    I don't see how Shine can sustain their organization though, and how bush league were they for not making sure Mayorga could fight in the first place? This sounds like a recipe for disaster with no real longterm plan. I hope no fighters signed exclusive contracts with that promotion.

    Elite XC, Affliction, and now Shine....what is it about these fledgling MMA organisations?....they're run by absolute boneheads.

    Alite XC & Affliction were major orginzation. Shine is 100x below them

    Absolutely, Shine is waaaay down there. I know several local orgs that are bigger than Shine.


    But yes, Shine is ran by boneheads

    If UFC were to disappear, MMA's popularity would just plummet.

    They had a lot more money behind them, but made the same mistake....putting all their eggs in one basket.
