WSOF Signs Jorge Santiago & Gilbert Yvel

Didn't hear about either signing with them but they are appear on the fighting list on the website.

Damn. This is like Strikeforce all over again with an impressive roster.

Oddly both dudes were on their website at its inception. Then Santiago signed with Strikeforce last year and he disappeared from it. Now I guess he's back.

Either way, those are some good dudes to have around, they definitely would increase my interest in any given show.

Yeah yvel was going to fight Anthony Johnson but had to pull out not sure what the reason was we might not see him for a little while Phone Post

They wanted it at 205 and the timing wasn't right for him to get back down to that weight, yet then they have AJ fight Arlovski at HW.  I'm sure Gilbert would have taken it at HW or even a small catchweight (215ish).

Yvel would ko Arlovski and Johnson so long as Rumble doesnt put him on his back IMO. All great fights though. Phone Post

Oh good I thought he might of been injured. I bet they will put together yvel vs spong sometime soon, how crazy would that fight be Phone Post

Nothing like a little optimism Phone Post

Not a fan of Yvel but it's nice to see Santiago going somewhere.

That guy just can't seem to win in the UFC. He is a solid fighter but he always falls at the last hurdle and has to start all over again. Phone Post

Honestly I would bet on Yvel over Rumble. Phone Post

AllAmericanBoxing - Honestly I would bet on Yvel over Rumble. Phone Post

I think AJ would wrestle him Phone Post

Pretty sure Spong and Gil are cousins....don't see that one happening.  Would still like to see him fight AJ or Arlovski though.  Maybe the winner?


They are cousins, but spong was making yvel look like a bitch on Twitter basically saying he ducked rumble, then yvel said the roids have gone to his lil cousins head.

You don't ever yhrow family under the bus like that. Yvel is stuck in netherlandscause of visa issues right now.
