Hey everyone – lets all make sure to watch UFC 70, and tell all your friends about it too. I want to hear about Spike getting some crazy numbers for the show. It will bolster UFC’s ability to either continue with Spike or finish the HBO deal.

When UFC 69 was on…In small lettering..It said…UFC 70 on Spike T.V.
And in real small lettering..I’m pretty sure it said “Outside U.S.(PPV)”…
I could be wrong, only cause i was hammerd…but then again if i remember that much..??

I stay in Scotland so i wish the journey was closer lol, but it worth it if you think about it. We cant complain that we have to pay for this one on ppv and the Americans get it on tape delay because every other ppv is on tape delay for us in the UK

I’m going to the event on sat (Ã‚Â£150 tickets!!), thinking of booking the day off on Friday and going up early for the weigh-ins.

I live around 3 hours from Manchester but going to be worth it!
