Awesome news. Goodridge-Buentello are actually pretty evenly matched. A good fight just got better.
SIGNAL HILL, California (July 18, 2008) – Veteran MMA fighter Gary “Big Daddy” Goodridge (23-17-1, 13 KOs, 9 Submissions) has replaced Aleksander Emelianenko, who didn’t meet CSAC licensing standards, as Paul “The Headhunter” Buentello’s opponent tomorrow night (Saturday, July 19). “Affliction Banned,” the greatest line-up of mixed-martial-arts fights ever presented in one night, will showcase talent from around the world in the fastest growing sport on earth, live on pay-per-view from Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
