I got report from a SpikeTV guy that if one of these fights ends in the first round then they will have enough time to air the KID fight.

Id take the Kid fight over the Ellenberger fight too probably. Cerrone/Kelly just doesnt excite me. But Cerrone will probably choke him out in the first and we'll see Kid.

Kid should probably be on over Cerrone/Kelly.But to be honest, I'm personally more interested in the Cerrone fight.

No dis to Ellenberger but he's still an up and comer. This is fckin Kid we're talking about.But yeah, business is business.
