Jake Rosholt had a lot of people in the MMA world thinking he had a bright future written all over him. But, a more experienced Dan Miller made him look bad in his first Ultimate Fighting Championship fight tonight at UFC Fight Night 17. Dan Miller needed just about a minute to submit Rosholt by guillotine. With the loss, Rosholt falls to 5-1 in his MMA career. Miller improves to 11-1.
Now that the IFL has officially been sold and the mass exodus can now begin. However, that exodus does not just involve fighters, but corporate officers as well. Joe Favorito, Senior Vice President of Communications for IFL issued a statement yesterday indicating his dissolution with the company.
Zuffa LLC, the parent company of the UFC, is the buyer responsible for claiming all the assets of the IFL. Zuffa will probably not continue the IFL, but will likely maintain all its assets.
Jim and Dan Miller already signed exclusive four-fight contracts with the UFC and more IFL veterans are expected to follow. It is quite probable that fighters such as Chris Horodecki and Jay Hieron will be among the other names to soon land a UFC contract.
