Eric Dartmouth, with three losses in a row at Light Heavy requests a move down to Middleweight, which I grant.
We manage to keep Abe Locke from Gamma, but it costs us a bump to $2,100 per fight.
We sign former Gamma Heavyweight Leon Banks (33-15) to a 4 fight deal at $3,000 per fight, he needs a few final pay days and we need a name in the gate keeper role, win/win.
We also sign newly debuting Light Heavy David Buentello, a 25 year old with decent hands and a mid level grappling background, who will earn $500 per fight for 7 fights and rounding out the new additions is 20 year old Middleweight prospect ‘Satanic’ Ali Pyke, a good amateur kick boxer, who is looking to make the transition to MMA. He gets $400 per fight to start.
