Affliction will not stop promoting MMA shows

Affliction COO Michael D. Cohen insists they will not stop promoting more MMA shows after the’Triloyg’ show on August 1.

Reports have claimed this could be the organization’s last show, but Cohen has revealed they could have a fourth one in 2009.

Cohen told FanHouse.com: ” Trilogy just means that this is the third. This is the third of the series.

” What it should indicate to people is that this is just the third event that Affliction will be promoting, and I can assure you that there will be a fourth; a fifth; and a sixth.”

Cohen also commented on the fact that Affliction have decided to go back to Anaheim for the third straight time for the event.

He said: ” You know, that’s an interesting question. It was a significant debate amongst the members of the board of Affliction whether to go to a different venue or to stay at the venue which we have hosted the last two events. If you look historically, the last two events were sell-outs of over 16,000 fans for each of the events. The fan base in California and in that surrounding area is so enormous that the decision was to stay in that locale. The fourth one will most probably be on the East Coast.”

On a fourth show in 2009, he added: ”It’s most probable.”
