Default Sokoudjou not signing with EliteXC

MMA WEEKLY - Your #1 Source for Daily MMA News, Interviews, Multimedia, and More

Either the UFC or HEROS is my best guess.

Doesn't Sokoudjou train with Randy Couture? I'm sure Dana White has Sokoudjou on his radar and maybe Randy'll help him being brought in.

Ahh, didn't see this. Did a search, but you misspelled his name! Of course names like his are the reason copy and paste was invented. Please close this thread or merge it.

That takes too much effort. Plus, nobody visits the K-1 forum anyhow

Not yet, but if they keep signing fighters like they have been it could start to get some traffic.

Sokoudjou asking price according to some inside EliteXC now stands at $150,000 a fight. He can make that over in Japan off his two huge wins in Pride.

At this point, he's not a big enough name here to warrant that money per fight, which is why even EliteXC backed off now.

BTW, he trains with Dan Henderson at Team Quest in Murrieta, CA. He's not with Randy at Xtreme Couture in Vegas.

Its always amazing how fortunes can change. Just 9 months ago, here was Sok getting schooled by Glover Texeira.

ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.
