Good fight, like that Fun Size signed with RFA. Smart move for his career, jump right into a title fight with the org that sends guys to the UFC. Get that title, maybe defend it once or twice and by then his record at Fly would be good and he'd be far enough away from his Bellator cut the UFC would then hopefully sign him.

I thought Makovsky was going to challenge Sean Santella for his Cage Fury Flyweight title. Anyway this works out better hopefully they both get into the UFC.

Wow, nice fight. I was wondering what happened to Makovsky. Does anyone know why the Santella fight never happened?

 

[VIP1349]

Damn, they coming back again? Went to the last RFA here. Will definetly be attending this one again, bad ass Main Event to.

 

[CC27]

I dont know why but the Santella fight got pushed back, Santella might have gotten hurt.

That was a great fight but the loser would probably never make it to the UFC so now hopefully they both can get a shot at some point.

I guess I can answer both of our questions with this:
