Elite XC's 'Destiny' Predictions Recap

I didn't do live round-by-round because I've written a lot and have had some mild computer issues all day.

I do have some comments on the fight that I interjected in to this column.


Tim Persey Def. Bo Cantrell
Casey: Cantrell
Art: Cantrell
Ric: Cantrell
Wade: Cantrell

It was a 4-3 split and the 3 were correct. Euan Scott and Marcus all start the night off with victories.

Mike Pyle Def. Ross Ebanez
Casey: Ebanez
Art: Ebanez
Ric: Ebanez
Wade: Ebanez
Marcus: Ebanez
Euan: Pyle
Scott: Pyle
It was a 5-2 split on this one and Scott and Euan are the only one’s in this bout that are not fools. One of the rare instances in real life where Scott isn’t a fool.

Adriano Pariera Vs. Javier Vazquez
Casey: Vazquez
Art: Vazquez
Ric: Vazquez
Euan: Vazquez

Edson Berto Def. John Shackelford
Casey: Berto
Art: Berto
Ric: Berto
Euan: Berto
Wade: Shackelford
Scott: Shackelford
Marcus: Shackelford
On this fight we had a 4-3 split, and even better it was a split along CARE-Other Vuz, Vuz, Vuz Jabroni lines. The CARE contingent picked Berto and the Jabronis picked Shackelford. For once, the CARE members get one over on the Jabronis.

Chris Gates Vs. Riki Fukuda
Casey: Fukuda
Art: Fukuda
Ric: Fukuda
Euan: Fukuda
Marcus: Fukuda
Wade: Chris Gates
Scott: Chris Gates
Scott and Wade took a loss here but in there defense, they were kind of handed Chris Gates at the last minute, so don’t send them too much hate mail.

Charles Bennett Def. KJ Noons
Casey: Krazy Horse
Art: Krazy Horse
Ric: Krazy Horse
Euan: Krazy Horse
Wade: Krazy Horse
Scott: Krazy Horse
Marcus: Krazy Horse

Gina Carano Def. Julie Kedzie
Casey: Carano
Art: Carano
Euan: Carano

This was an awesome fight if you ask me. The 5-2 split went to the majority as Carano won this fight.

Joey Villasenor Def. David Loiseau
Casey: Loiseau
Ric: Loiseau

Art: Silva
Ric: Silva
