EliteXC: Return of the King on Showtime June 14th

Televised Fights:
KJ Noons vs Yves Edwards
Rafael Feijao vs Wayne Cole
Dave “Pee Wee” Herman vs Ron Waterman
Murilo “Ninja” Rua vs Tony Bonello
Nick Diaz vs Muhsin Corbbrey

KJ Noons defends his 160 pound title against the hard hitting striker Yves Edwards. Both these guys have pretty good stand up, so this fight will probably be a war. I think Yves has a good chance of pulling this off.

We also see the return of Murilo “Ninja” Rua and Nick Diaz. If Nick Diaz is victorious in his fight with Corbbrey, he may be next in line for the a shot at the 160 pound EliteXC title.
