Red – My impression is it will be similar to that. I think the UFC needs some regularly scheduled fights to keep fans on track. I think over time it will increase viewers once people know when to tune in to see live MMA.

The weekly live series sounds very interesting. I wonder if it will be similar to ESPN’s weekly boxing program like Friday Night Fights?

I hope they have a format change in mind for TUF. It seems to be loosing some steam. I will always be a fan, but I watch any fighting I can get my grubby mits on.

Awesome, and yeah good point, they (the UFC) just kinda handed the free PPV quality cards over. It wasn’t promoted very much. I guess with the way they are trying to expand overseas and all, it could mean more free cards for us (USA peeps). That’s cool by me.
