Petruzelli denies Elite XC officials fixed Kimbo fight

(via Yahoo! Sports) · October 7, 2008 · 5 PM

Seth Petruzelli, who became a national name Saturday night after knocking out street brawling legend Kimbo Slice, clarified statements that he made to an Orlando radio station Monday that hinted that EliteXC officials told him to fix the fight. Petruzelli said on Tuesday that his early statement was confusing and what he meant was: "I wanted to have an exciting fight and I wanted the knock out bonus so I wanted to keep it standing.”

  1. EliteXC is a joke of a promotion and will be gone soon. They have run of the mill fighter and over the hill fighters. To sum it all up, very bad TV.
