EliteXC on Monday released the updated fight card for CBS-EliteXC Saturday Night Fights, which takes place on Oct. 4 on CBS. As previously announced, the main event features Kevin “Kimbo Slice” Ferguson against UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock.

Following the rescheduling of Affliction Entertainment’s sophomore offering, “Day of Reckoning,” a bout between Affliction heavyweights Andrei Arlovski and Roy Nelson is a late addition to CBS-EliteXC Saturday Night Fights.

EliteXC welterweight champion Jake Shields will defend his title against Cage Rage champion Paul Daley. The CBS portion of the event will also feature Gina Carano versus Kelly Kobald and former EliteXC middleweight champion Murilo “Ninja” Rua against former IFL fighter Benji Radach.

A preliminary bout between Cristiane “Cyborg” Santos and Yoko Takahashi was originally slated to be a swing bout on the CBS telecast if time permitted. The addition of Arlovski versus Nelson puts the televised portion at five bouts, not likely to leave time for the Santos-Takahashi bout.

Hey whos watching the fight tonight. did everyone see shamrock push kimbo at the weigh in LOL and Gina Carano had to get buck naked to make weight !!

[tonio_cruz]

Frank is the younger brother of Ken ( adoptive ).
Ken is washed up. He has zero chance in this fight.

ya i didn't notice that ,your right it is ken fighting tonight. Shamrock is 44 years old and has been fighting for 15 years, since 1993. He's lost seven of his past eight fights, a streak going back almost seven years. More importantly, Shamrock has been knocked out in the first round of his past five fights. And for those of you thinking Shamrock is a lock to end the fight by way of submission, the last time he forced someone to tap was more than seven years ago against Sam Adkins, who currently holds a 7-20-2 MMA record and has never beaten an opponent by KO or TKO. I still give him his props as one of the originators or mma he just doesn't know when to call it quits !!

[tb1971]

Good info yamaha thanks for the input, it's all about the money for shamrock plain and simple thats the only reason he is fighting. Now you want to talk about a fight worth watching and I think they are trying to put it together and thats Slice vs Tyson! That would be somethign to see!

[yamahadude157]

Ya that would be interesting tyson vs slice especially if tyson was in his prime he would destroy kimbo. Unfortunately tysons last few fights were pretty unimpressive, he seemed to have lost his killer agression and will to fight but perhaps being in the mma spotlight would renew that !!

can we all have a moment of silence for ken
