I agree with you but for some reason Andre always makes it a good fight..I really want to see cro cop

[gromble]

cro cop by decapitation ...
werdum by sub ...
sinosic by the hand of god ...
^just because he is a good guy but probably outmatched in this one

[Cybouncer]

I think I'm most excited for the Sinosic/Bisping fight. I love to watch Bisping brawl and Sinosic is old school. It's good to see him still around. He's coming off two pretty easy wins, which should give him some confidence going into the fight. He will need to be on top of his game to beat Bisping though.

[bloody hymen]

has this fight always been free on spike? i could have sworn at first it was supposed to be a ppv.

[gromble]

its PPV in the UK live starting in a couple hours , and then free tape-delayed in the US and Canada tonight ...

[highway23]

sweetness, can't wait

It was orignally PPV but Dana White wanted to make it free to show some love to Spike TV

[highway23]

Dana is a smart bastard.

He knows how to keep fans loving it and doesn't bend them over when there's an easy chance to make a profit.

I wonder what the profit numbers would be if it were PPV compared to if it's highly publicized and a lot more people watch...along with sponsors on SPIKE?

Do you think it'd be a big difference?

Either way, it's great. I bought the last PPV, and I'm happy to not pay for this one. I know you can always watch them on Youtube but it's just not the same.

[highway23]

do you think 10 fights will be shown?

[d0uche_n0zzle]

We'll be lucky to see six bouts.

[burky79]

dunno how many will be shown. hopefully they are all exciting.
ive done all i can all day not to go to sherdog and see the results.
love rogans commentary. always.

[highway23]

yes, Rogan makes it fun to listen to.

The other douche is really annoying.

If we get 6 or 7, I'll be psyched. They waste so much fucking time on this prefight shit. Reminds me of the Olympics sometimes.

I will NOT go and search for winners!

Jesus, Seal is a badass fighter!

[Palerider4146]

Palerider checking in, I say we see 5 fights total.

[Palerider4146]

Vera had a sick guillotine on Sillva last time. It was a great move by vera

[highway23]

fuck Kongo is big!

[highway23]

17.2 stones...they still use stones to measure weight over there??

i like goldberg

seal, hahhaha

[burky79]

that guillotine attempt sucked (as does my spelling of it)
kongo must not have any ground skills... at all
as i say that he reverses and stands up
and another silva takedown
silva isnt doing a damn thing with side control.

[highway23]

Goldberg reminds me of the voice-over on ABC shows a few years ago...who knows, maybe it was him.

Nice slam, looks like it's going to be awhile on this fight

[burky79]

that first round was uneventful.
good stand up by kongo, horrible takedown defense.
good takedowns by silva and nothing done with them.

[burky79]

bang bang bang
and the first takedown defense sprawl by kongo
and now hes down again.

[burky79]

is that half assed ghillotine the only thing kongo does on the ground, jesus

[highway23]

jesus, why show this fight...this is fucking horrible
