Frank Shamrock, Cung Le, Jake Shields, Drew Fickett and Gary Shaw held a conference call for the EliteXC/Strikeforce card on March 29 in San Jose on Showtime.
Gary Shaw on the particulars for the first EliteXC card on CBS:
“There will be a CBS press release going out tomorrow, announcing when the first fight card is and announcing some of the fighters on that card. So I don’t want to pre-empt it. But it is much sooner than later. We think we have a great card put together. We’re very excited to be on CBS, and I think the announce team will surprise some people. It’s just exciting. This is just the single biggest thing that I think will happen to any fighter or MMA to have the ability to be seen by over 100 million eyeballs.”
