Yawn.
This is a HORRIBLE card!! I was planning on attending the event as it is one of the first East coast events in several years. But, this card is almost not worthy of my pay-per-view money either. Way to go UFC! Get a real main event. The main event should be a main event of a Spike TV show. HORRIBLE!!!!!!
Im not giving this bastards my money for that ****ty card, ill just watch it on youtube the day after…..
Umm… this must be typo. You silly guys wrote ‘UFC 78′ when you obviously meant to put Fight Night 12…. right?
The UFC is down on cash right now due to recent pride singings… this card is horrible yes, but you can’t have top of the line cards every time… It was alot better when it was tito/rishad II… but it still sucked.
I think there are really a combination of factors that made this card what it is. The lack of any title fights is the biggest but ongoing talks with Tito and surgeries sure played a role in it as well.
You guys can complain about a ****ty card all you want. I still will buy the pay-per-view. You buy some beer, have 7-8 people over, everyones pitches in 5 bucks and you get to watch Houston Alexander knock someones head off. That’s worth my 5 dollars.
I with Mojo on this one, while the card lacks, severely, its just a stupid card, I will still buy it.
In all honesty, providing David Terrell doesn’t injure himself from now until the fight, I am interested to see him fight again.
Also, Houston Alexander, lets see if he can get into the second round of a fight.
I agree Accomando that the card is weak, but seeing Terrell back in action does interest me very much. I do hope he doesn’t pull out of this fight due to injury because if he does; we will probably never see him in the UFC again.
Rashad, Terrell, Houston, and Fisher…Excited to see these guys fight. It’s gonna be worth seeing the face of Bisping when he realizes that he SHOULD be fighting at 185lbs. Rashad will make sure to show him that. This is a good way for “Sugar” to get closer to a champ fight. Picture this: Bisping vs. Jardine, Houston, Tito, Forrest, Shogun, Wandy? Which weight class do YOU think he should fight? Peace. -Lou
