EliteXC To Strip KJ Noons Of The Lightweight Title
Posted by Dustin James on 08.29.2008
Huge breaking news from 411mania.....
TSM Radio posted an interview with EliteXC Vice President Jared Shaw up on Youtube earlier and discussed such topics as Kimbo Slice, Gina Carano, and of course KJ Noons. However, when the Noon's name was brought up, things got a little heated:
However that's not the big part of the story. TSM Radio has informed me that EliteXC plans on stripping KJ Noons of the EliteXC lightweight title and Jared Shaw will release a statement on next week's episode.
Stay tuned to 411mania and TSMRadio.com for all the news regarding the status of KJ Noon's EliteXC lightweight title.
I'll generally side with the fighters- but there's just no way here... especially with Noons running his mouth saying more and more.
KJ signed the contract, became the champ, they offered him a prime-time network fight and he refuses... because he doesn't like that Diaz is making more then him.
He was an ok fighter with some decent potential... but doubt we'll be hearing much from him ever again.

There are lots of MMA orgs trying to gain a foothold. Noons with wins over Diaz and Yves, ain't sitting too ugly.

Would you want to hire a champion who's shown that they're willing to refuse fights and screw over an entire organization because of pay scales and contracts they've already willingly signed?
...and while plenty of organizations are out there trying to gain a foothold, how many not under the Zuffa banner are succeeding?
Granted, there's always DREAM, but Noons wouldn't last long with the LW competition there.

I hate interviewers who have no idea what they're talking about but pretend like they do. This guy is a douchebag. He keeps interrupting, knows NOTHING about the whole Diaz-Noons situation, and then talks about it like he understands it. FU.

Now is elite is smart they will make KJ sit on the sidelines for a year or so since he only has one fight left. Good luck promoting yourself if you can't fight anywhere

seems like things got heated cuz the interviewer was pissing shaw off. Noons needs to understand he works for Elite and they say Diaz is the #1 contender so that is your fight.

The interviewer is a suck-up know-nothing and Jared Shaw is a poser. Nick Diaz is a low class douchebag and I will never pay to see him fight. Noons dominated him and caused the cuts that everyone seems to think appeared out of thin air to ruin Nick's chances to win the fight with K. J.. Diaz got his ass handed to him on a plate by Noons and I don't care how many Stockon moron wannabes think otherwise. Pay Noons and Diaz 60/40 and let the show go on. I agree with Noons for holding out. Let the idiots at EliteXC get their collective heads out of their asses and do the right thing. A title from a bogus organization is, in the end, not worth a lot and Noons is right to cut ties with them. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Elite my ass. Jared, sit up straight and take off the hat. You are such a loser.
K.J. , if you're reading this in your spare time, hang tough and don't pay attention to the parasites that make an unearned living off of the fight game. And when and if you do finally meet Nick Diaz in the ring again, please continue where you left off the last time you fought him. NIck is as insufferable in defeat as Jared Shaw is in general. If they strip you of your title I'll never support them in any way again. I'm just one person, but I'm one of the reasons their organization will fail in the end.
Cheers,
A Kamuela fan
