When Coker said ShoMMA was going to focus on up-and-comers, he wasn't kidding. I've barely heard of any of those guys.
Hopefully, they're just people who haven't had exposure and not a half-assed Journeyman show.

All 20 fighters competing at tonight's "Strikeforce Challengers: Aina vs. Evangelista" event weighed in for the show on Thursday.
The weigh-ins took place at the World Sports Café in Fresno, Calif.
Fresno's Save Mart Center hosts tonight's Showtime-televised show, which features a main event between Mike Aina and Billy Evangelista and a co-headliner of Sarah Kaufman vs. Miesha Tate.
Although both headliners appeared to miss the 156-pound limit, Strikeforce officials didn't mention any penalties and instead stated the bout is official and ready to go.
Evangelista, undefeated at 9-0, fights in front of a hometown crowd when he meets B.J. Penn-trained Aina.
"I plan to spoil his homecoming and win one for all my fans in my hometown in Hawaii, who have always been there and supported me," Aina stated. "They are with me each and every time I step into the cage."
Tonight's main card airs at 11 p.m. ET/PT on Showtime. MMAjunkie.com will have a complete event recap posted later today.
