Rumor: UFC to Buy IFL

Inside MMA is reporting that the UFC is finalizing a deal that would bring the International Fight League into the Zuffa family.

What does this mean? It could mean a ton of things, they could operate a 3rd league. If the WEC is Triple-A the IFL could be Double-A.

More than likely though, this will allow Zuffa to distribute more talent through their divisions.

Some folks to watch for:

Heavyweight Roy Nelson
Heavyweight Fabiano Scherner
Heavyweight Brad Imes
Light heavyweight Vladimir Matyushenko
Light heavyweight Jamal Patterson
Middleweight Matt Horwich
Middleweight Ryan McGivern
Middleweight Dan Mille
Welterweight Jay Hieron
Welterweight Delson Heleno
Lightweight Ryan Schultz
Lightweight Chris Horodecki
Lightweight Deividas Taurosevicius
Featherweight Wagnney Fabiano
Featherweight L.C. Davis
Featherweight Shad Lierley
