I hope its free again, theres nothing better then getting drunk at home and watching the fights, i’m not 21 so I can’t drink at the bar so I always have to slam some beers before I go into the bars.

First post

I hope it’s free too, it’s a good way for the organization to show some appreciation to the fans.

Looks like Bisping won’t be ready to fight on this one. Hopefully Terry Etim can fight in his homeland!

Does anyone know if they air any of the UK-UFC fights here in the states? Perhaps through an international channel?

If they can’t find an Englishman to put on the card, they could put Evan Tanner on, since he could at least drink like an Englishman.

i think it will be free with dec 29 and feb super bowl dana would not dream of 3 40 buck pay per view in a spam of a little over a month. avg watcher won’t buy all 3. i heard newcastle on the 19th not 26th. i wish that the euro fighters would fight in america and not just europe like davis
lets hope it’s a freebie, i know there won’t be a title involved but i hope he has a couple good main cards

Davis/Liaudin eh? Thats going to be one wicked fight.

RRRRRRRR!!!!!!! I heard that UFC was coming to Canada in January. BLAST!!!!!!

putting the shows on for free is not cheap for the ufc and many of them result in a loss of money for the company but i think in the long wrong it will benefit the company by gaining new fans who will then buy future ppv shows. I wouldnt mind seeing cro cop on this card maybe in a rematch with gabe gonzaga to see if he can avenge a previous loss and also put himself back in the heavyweight title picture.

I don’t care if it isn’t cheap for the UFC they are making a lot of money and they still can’t pay their fighters what they deserve. I knew this before the situation with Randy. If you have heard any interviews with Frank Shamrock he says that Dana doesn’t pay the fighters that good. I think Dana White should give fighters what they deserve because soon everyone are going to go to whoever pays them the most and it might not be the UFC.

i like marcus davis, and and don’t get me wrong i think liaudin is decent, but shouldn’t davis be fighting somebody a little better by now? i want to see him fight luke cummo, i think that would be a sick fight…and why is davis always fighting on the cards over seas? anyway, i hope this is a free show on spike, i don’t mind the tape delay, i just can’t stand the commercials, but i guess its better than paying 40 bucks…also its gonna be almost weird to not have bisping on a card in england…i hope they can get arlovski’s contract worked out by then and get him in there against kongo or somebody too…seems like a good card for forrest and rampage to fight too, or rampage vs. somebody…

or how about arlovski vs. cro cop, that sounds better to me than kongo, but that’ll probably never happen…

RRRRRRRR!!!!!!! I heard that UFC was coming to Canada in January. BLAST!!!!!!

They are delaying it until GSP’s title match. Forsure that one will be in Montreal.

GSP: “Oh man, I am so appy to be able to fight for the tie-tel in my ometown”

Newcastle hear i come (once they confirm it anyway!!!) Damm, they better put on a decent main event, not like Bisping vs Evans!!

montreal, quebec- bell centre- 20 000 fans

calgary, alberta- saddledome- 20 000 fans

come to canada. mma is crazy in alberta, quebec and the whole country. both places would sell out easily. gsp wouldn’t even have to be on either card.

cro cops gonna be on this card dont know who his opponent is gonna be.could see dan henderson headline but ive still got a funny feeling hes gonna fight tito superbowl weekend.

Another Cro Cop loss in the UK! Ha, he must hate this place already!

just announced ufc 79 NEMESIS thats as good as saying liddell/silva is signed yeeeeeeeeeeeeeess.the big one is here.

I hope it’s free too, it’s a good way for the organization to show some appreciation to the fans.

It should be free after seeing the Validation card and what a joke it is….

It’s great to hear that there is another card in England, but what about one card in Canada??? C’mon man. We’ve heard about it for so long, but it’s yet to happen. Dana’s been talking about it for over a year, and in that time there has been multiple UK cards, but nothing for Canada. Plus, it would be a real short plane trip to get here.

All I ask for (along with many fellow Canadian MMA fans I’m sure):

Bring the GSP vs. the winner of Hughes/Serra title match to Canada. I don’t think that is asking for too much.

On that note, we really got to get MMA legalized in Ontario as well. Imagine a card at the Air Canada Centre.

GSP: “Oh man, I am so appy to be able to fight for the tie-tel in my ometown”

“I am not im-PRESSed by your per-form-ANCE”

Would anybody pay to see this?

Enough already with the England events. We got the point. The UFC wants to spread to the UK. Before we know it, only like half the events will take place in the US. Prior the the british invasion, and all of these California shows, it was basically 3-4 events in Las Vegas then 1 event somewhere else in the US. They wait two years before coming back to the East Coast, yet this will be the 3rd event in England in what, 7 months? Plus the lackluster Ireland show… I hate the free ones with all of the commercials. You don’t get to see the fighters in thier corner between rounds. We already sit thru enough commercial when we pay $40 for PPV.

i like marcus davis, and and don’t get me wrong i think liaudin is decent, but shouldn’t davis be fighting somebody a little better by now? i want to see him fight luke cummo, i think that would be a sick fight…and why is davis always fighting on the cards over seas?

I agree that Marcus Davis has proved himself to be more than ready for a step up in competition. I would disagree however, that Luke Cummo fits that bill. Marcus is ready to fight someone ranked in the Top 10 and fight on the main card. A fight against Luke would sattisfy neither of those. Unless it was an UFN event, then it would make the main card. Marcus is ready for a step up in competition. It’s like they are giving him the Roger Huerta treatment, but for no reason.

Marcus Davis is the man. I’m looking forward to him fighting some top 10 fighters. He’s a tough dude that can take a shot. I see him having a great year in 2008 and possibly being a title contender.

oh man how awesome would that be for ufc to come to calgary.

Man i for one will be really pissed off if CroCop fights in england. Man the guy lost two times there already. Its time for him to come to vegas or just somewhere in US.

whoooooo!!!! this is just up the road from me. ill defo be looking to get a ticket!

I really hope Mirko doesn’t blow it!…Again. I wonder did anyone do a ‘Leave Crocop alone’ Chris Crocker-esque vid yet?…The Sherdog guys got videos of people doing a Shogun one.

What about the skydome / rogers centre ( Toronto ) wich can hold up to 55,000.00 people….Yeah thats right

MMA’s not legalized in Ontario.

wonder if they’ll put Forrest on the card seeing though he fought in belfast. Jardine v griffin rematch?? winner v rampage. but then rampage wouldn hav fought in aggges. 11,000 capacity, doesnt seem that big does it?

according to the metro arena site, the date would HAVE to be the 19th as there is a Wedding Fair on the weekend of the 26th and all other saturdays in january are already booked

i hope that lesnar and ortiz are there, lesnar was a hit in the wwe and i think his size and strength will help him alot in the ufc. ortiz is just amazing nothing can beat his war with ken shamrock.

This sucks man, UFC 80 is not going to be aired on spike t.v but with a fight card like that you all ready know that there gonna make it a pay per view event so if u want to watch this event your gonna have too pay for it.And there’s lots of rumors about cro cop fighting at ufc 80 but they have not found anyone to fight him yet!
