Scott Smith and EliteXC Agree to Long-Term Deal

Former UFC fighter Scott Smith (11-4 MMA, 1-3 UFC) has signed a long-term contract with Elite Xtreme Combat, the organization’s parent announced on Wednesday.

ProElite Inc. also announced that Smith will make his EliteXC debut in February.

Smith is perhaps best known for his stint on a special “comeback” season of “The Ultimate Fighter” and a subsequent knockout at the show’s live finale — which appeared to play a major part in EliteXC’s offer to the fighter.

Good move for Scott Smith i think he can do alot better in the WEC than he did in the UFC hopefully he will be able to get his career ib track and make a run in the WEC.

WEC and EliteXC aren't the same thing.

His fights are always exciting... Plus he's a hometown boy, gotta love Scott Smith. Good luck to him.

Why the hell would the UFC let him go?????????????

What is wrong with them? Do they not realise that division and seriouslt weak and needs all the talent it can get!

Smith is a very good striker with good wrestling, ok he has a BJJ weakness but he belongs in the current UFC MW division imho! He only lost to Terrell/Cote/Herman ffs! all top guys!
