Countdown to UFC 104 will debut tonight (October 19) at 11 p.m. ET on Spike TV to promote the upcoming pay-per-view (PPV) event scheduled for the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, on Saturday, October 24.
The hour-long special presentation will provide a glimpse into the preparation and training camps of the fighters set to headline the show, including current light heavyweight champion Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida and challenger Mauricio "Shogun" Rua.
Also slated for the main card is a heavyweight tilt between rising talent Cain Velasquez and IFL/Affliction veteran "Big" Ben Rothwell, as well as a lightweight showdown between Sean "The Muscle Shark" Sherk and Gleison Tibau.
For those who miss tonight's "Countdown to UFC 104″ premier it will re-air on Thursday, October 22 at 1 p.m. ET and then again on Saturday, October 24 at 6 p.m. ET.

Does anyone know if anyone UFC related is going to be on Leno/Conan/Kimmel this week? Seems a waste to go to LA and not hit at least one of those.

i look forward to this event, what i don’t look forward to is when somthing cool happends and some morons go around and call it fixed, that seems to be the thing the to do every UFC event these days. Also, we all know and say that “anything can happen in MMA”, and yet when it does happen everyones calling it fixed and stuff, oh well i can’t complain we got alot of free MMA up ahead, good luck to both fighters..

Just don’t pay attention to people making comments like that… they are a small minority. I for one don’t even remember the last time I was reading about any MMA events being fixed.
On a side note: Machida by second round TKO.
Velasquez by decision.

UFC fight club members, I got a question about the ufc weigh ins and Q&A part of the events.
I got a fight club membership last week. It states allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. Now i did pay but for the Q&A how do i get in without a pass or anything? how would they know i’m a fight club member? i got the e-mail and i got a number. do i print it out and show it to them?

Machida’s karate was created specifically for MMA, I don’t see how anyone will beat him.

Won’t know – this card is garbage. Machida (and I’m not a huge supporter) will destroy. Save your money.

I’m with you Intro. Gratuitous unnecessary dana white head shots seem to dominate and overwhelm at certain points

I’m surprised his little bald head isn’t sandwiched between Lyoto and Mauricio on the promo poster.
by introvert on Oct 19, 2009 12:19 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
hahahaha, if by sandwiched you mean his head takes up 80% of the poster in the middle while Shogun and Machida are on the edges barely visible and unfocused
