EliteXC Vice President Jared Shaw contacted FiveOuncesOfPain.com to correct several stories that have appeared on this site that have been attributed to other sources.

In response to a story that appeared on FightLine.com that claimed a fight between Kimbo Slice and Brett Rogers had been “confirmed for October,” Shaw said he was mis-quoted in the piece. He clarified his position by stating that “A fight could possibly take place between Kimbo and Rogers within the next 12 months” but added that nothing has been made official. Shaw believes that the two are destined to fight but that it’s not expected to happen until scheduling and the proper platform can be worked out.

Shaw also responded to a Sherdog.com report that claimed Antonio Silva had agreed verbally to fight Sergei Kharitonov for the vacant EliteXC heavyweight title during the SHOWTIME portion of the next installment of “Saturday Night Fights” on July 26 in Stockton, Calif. He issued a clear denial, saying “That fight is 100 percent not happening.”

When asked about whether an opponent was in place for Silva, Shaw indicated that one has been selected that is worthy of fighting for a title but that a deal was in the process of being finalized.

I had a feeling that Sergei being on the card was to good to be true. So now who do we get, Dave Herman?

Good ol' Shaw - he's feeling the heat and backpedalin' like Lance Armstrong in reverse. Does he have control of the situation or doesn't he? The intrigue should keep us busy for a good week or two.

As excited as I was to see Sergei again this fight really didn't make a lot of sense.

I think Antonio Silva is gonna go all King Kong, on a hotel room with a view.

Shaw isn't making the decisions anymore. This interview made that clear. He is just the middle man. The rumors about him being on the outs are pretty clearly true.
