The UFC has announced this past weekend that they are expanding their fight library to include bouts from 7 new promotions including Pancrase, Hook-N-Shoot, Cage Rage, Extreme Challenge, Xtreme Fighting Organization, King Of The Cage, and TKO Promotion.

Pancrase is arguably the biggest name mentioned above, with fighters such as Bas Rutten, Jose Aldo, Chael Sonnen, the Shamrock brothers, and more, all fighting under the promotion at one time or another.

The expansion is the brain-child of Joe Silva, who came up with a list of promotions he would like to see added to the fight library.

There has also been talk of the UFC adding K-1 to their fight library, although nothing has materialized at the present time.
