I got James Worme coming up
We haven’t talked yet, but there is no way he can not throw dirt on people with the questions that are lined up for him
We are going to find out the truth about the IFC Ukraine show
At UFC 11 Igor Vovchancyn was supposed to be brought in as a guest, but had visa issues
my belief was that those “talks” were more of an investigation into what exactly transpired

Igor Vovchanchyn was invited to fight at UFC 11, but could not participate due to visa issues as well as dissatisfaction with the offer.
Why wasn’t Davie fired after the Combat in Kiev stuff? He stayed until late '97.

Combat in Kiev
i always found the mat logo humorous
i thought they werre-using ufc mats
then i heard they jusp copied the ufc logo, but had to paint over the wording, put hair and lightning on the dude to make it look different than ufc
Someone found the DVD in the bargain bin at Wal Mart and gave it to me.
They did t have other options
Art Davie is the worlds first MMA match maker
The only other available options at the time were in Japan… until John Perretti
Perretti was light years ahead of everyone else in terms of knowledge

I truly had no idea that Igor faced The Mangler.
That was not a UFC show.That was a IFC show put on by scam artists Howard Petschler & Buddy Albin.
Wasn’t Art one of the backers of that?
My guess is that Andy Anderson was the backer.
Andy was one of the first backers before the Maloof’s came in.
I need to go back and listen to some more Lyte’s out.

Yes,come back and tell me about Art.
I’m very curious.
I liked Paul Varelans, really nice guy, but he didn’t have the best strategy here.
You mean the strategy of taking shots until the guy gets tired?

I have what the original mat looked like.
The IFC wanted to originally be called “Ultimate Warriors” but was threatened with a lawsuit,so they changed their name to the International Fighting Championships.
