Kenny Florian Signs New Deal

Kenny Florian has torn through his competition as of late, and is signing a new six fight deal according to Jarry Park.

Following that victory Florian mentioned that he was deservedly packing it in for 2007. However, there’s still still a lot to look forward to for the 31-year-old. As he told us in our interview, he will be making his broadcasting debut for Spike TV at the TUF 6 Finale this Saturday night, he is looking to fight again in February or March (the fact that he will be in the “booth” for the Guida-Huerta fight leads me to believe they will match him up with the winner of that bout) and, the big one, he is about to sign a new six-fight contract with the UFC which will kick in once his current deal runs through (he has two fights left on his old contract).

This is great news. Kenny Florian is one of the more underrated fighters around. His TUF pedigree, and his geek look, have not helped, but that hasn’t deterred him. He’s been victorious in his last 3 fights, and will be a tough task for anyone.
