According to a report earlier this evening Affliction has now added fighters from the defunct IFL organization by signing Heavyweight Champion Roy "Big Country" Nelson and Light Heavyweight Champ Vladimir Matyushenko. Affliction VP Tom Atencio will make an announcement on the fighters signing on with the upstart organization on Wednesday.
Matyushenko will be slated to take on Antonio Rogerio Nogueira at the Affliction: Day of Reckoning card on October 11 and as for Nelson he will be facing Brazilian Jiu - Jitsu and Xtreme Couture trainer Jay White who has only seven MMA fights under his belt, but on the downside his record is 2-5. Nonetheless; Affliction is really stacking the deck in the Heavyweight division with Nelson and White coming into the fold.
The only remaining question mark is will Tito Ortiz now come aboard the Affliction bandwagon? Find out as we will keep you posted as always.
