AfflictionWorld renowned MMA clothing company, Affliction, reached into their pockets and pulled together an organization of top fighters, marketed & publicized by Affliction Entertainment VP, Tom Atencio. This organization, unlike their competition, is open to cross-promotion.
View Poll Results: Will Affliction last past three shows?
Our plan is to do three events, and if we’re successful with those, then we’ll continue and go from there. I’m in business to make money, not lose money. We’ll see how it goes.”
I dunno, but with cards like todays I really, really don't wish death upon them. Don't really see why anyone other than UFC-only die hards would.
If more cards like this happen, then I really would love to say yes, but it depends on; 1. if this is successful, 2. they bother to do the two more shows in the first place.
I wish there was a maybe option, I'll wait and see.

All they have to do is have great cards liek this one and they will be fine
Show 2-
Fedor Vs Arlovski
Show 3-
fedor vs Barnett
Well for one how long is Fedor's contract with Affliction? and two a lot of hardcore fans know who these four guys are but casual fans probably only know who Arlovski is and we don't know if the UFC will counter-program them everytime. Because a lot of casual fans will probably choose the UFC over Affliction.
I am wondering about contracts with Affliction. Since they say only three shows for sure, are all fighters only signed to three fight contracts (of the fighters that are actually signed with them and not just on loan) or are they all fight by fight contracts?

The only three fighters for sure are Arlovski, Sylvia, and Rothwell. Arlovski is signed to a three fight deal, Sylvia and Rothwell are on loan from Adrenaline so I guess they are not really Affliction fighters.
