With Mayorga out, N.C. pulls plug on Shine Fights "Worlds Collide: Mayorga vs. Thomas"

Just hours after Shine Fights broadcaster Karyn Bryant informed the world that Ricardo Mayorga had been officially pulled from tonight's Shine Fights pay-per-view event, the entire event has been scrapped.

"[North Carolina] commission cancels Shine Fights," Bryant posted on her Twitter account.

Shine Fights officials have yet to make an official announcement, but MMAjunkie.com has confirmed with sources close to the event that the ring at the Fayetteville, N.C., venue that was to house the event is already being dismantled, and tonight's pay-per-view event has been scrapped.

The North Carolina Boxing Authority officials weren't immediately available for comment.

The death blow for Shine Fights event came after the organization suffered a fatal wound earlier this morning. The promotion was barred from utilizing advertised main event competitor Ricardo Mayorga after a Florida judge issued an injunction requested by Don King Productions, the company that holds Mayorga's boxing contract.

King later filed a cash bond of $1 million, and while Shine Fights officials initially claimed that the event would go on as planned, they eventually elected to promote a David Heath vs. Murilo "Ninja" Rua bout to the main event position, according to Bryant.

However, the North Carolina commission has since scrapped the event altogether.

MMAjunkie is attempting to contact Shine Fights officials and will have more on this developing story as it becomes available.

I hope Don King dies a slowly and painful death fried slowly over fire with extra hot chili sauce.

Don king is only interested in a few things: Money, Power and Publicity.

That is probably also the reason why he has his hair that way, so people can remember him when he has been on TV.

Shine might have made a mistake signing a boxer that still has a contract but Don King does not own people even though he does seem to think he does as soon as the contract is signed. MMA is not boxing, it is more and the only thing that could have happened is that his boxer would get hurt. But that could also happen if he will cross the street or whatever.

I hope Shine does not have to pay a ridiculous amount of money ($ 1,000,000) to Don King for something that never happened, that is just something I despise. I don't like to pay for something I don't get nor does anyone right?
