Affliction’s July 19 Show May Lose Venue

All the hardcore fans know of the possible match between current Heavyweight King Fedor Emelianenko and former UFC Heavyweight Champion Tim Sylvia has been proposed for July 19th. Well, it’s not looking good so far. Apparently the upstart MMA promotion is facing all the difficulties it can handle, maybe more actually. It’s been reported that they have lost their venue at American Airlines Center, and that their deal with Mark Cuban’s HDNet has fallen apart as well.

The event has not been canceled, it just needs to find a new venue. And Randy Couture has stated it may have found another. But another outlet may be needed if it’s true their deal with HDNet did indeed fall apart.
