Does anyone follow any other MMA organizations, other than the big ones (UFC, WEC, Pride, Affliction, the various Japanese organizations...Shooto and King of the Cage I guess are "smaller" big ones)?

Anyone have any recommendations for other organizations to watch/pay attention to?

I've found a few by searching for fights in Atlantic City. Here's some I found:

Mixed Fighting Alliance (this one has some familiar names)
Extreme Challenge MMA

these 2 seems to be some of the better ones...anyone have any others to add...big or small...that I'm missing?


If anyone is interested, I've found one good way to figure it out: using sherdog, go to events, then click on each event and see how many fighters they have "fighter profiles" for.

i follow UFC and WEC like a mofo. but as for the others, as long as i can recognize one of our fighers up in the ring, im more than willing to check it out. I mean Urijah was Kotc champ, and Gladiator champ, there is alot of rising talent in those smaller mma leagues

That's another great way to follow the sport, TapouT, by fighters/teams.
There used to be a way to access the "Team Alpha Male" website, now it just seems like it goes straight to the forums...anyone know how to get a listing of the Team Alpha Male members and when/where they're fighting?

A great Org in Japan that does not get mentioned much is DEEP. They always have exciting matches and it is filled with smaller fighters. Check it out. The footage is hard to come by though unless you have access to Japanese satellite TV.
