Vernon White (0-0) (LHW)

originally White was supposed to face San Jose Razor Claws member Raphael Davis on 1/19/07 but due to a California state commission ruling the fight was called off because of the large disparity in experience between White (who has over 50 MMA fights) and Davis (who only has 2). In place of the LHW battle, the two alternate LWs of the teams will face off instead. [1]
