hopefully there will be 2 belts on the line

aldo would be a nice addition, if they could find a decent opponent

Have you watched Grispi fight?

He is as legit as there is outside of Sandro, who will not fight Aldo (same team).

"Holy shit! That's a fight card!"

Done. Your request is granted Mr. Tom Wright

The ufc doesn't put on "holy shit" cards anymore.

I’ve been disappointed in the cards lately. They certainly aren’t worth 50 bucks in this economy.

i'm hoping with the new batch of wec fighters they'll start doing that

i get tired of cards where every undercard fight has at least one TUF competitor in it

I don't know if that's going to make it better or worse.

Two more weight classes means more good fights & more bad fights.

by Get Down or Lay Down on Dec 20, 2010 8:19 PM EST up reply actions  

i think they'll do ok until they have the tuf's for those weight classes

then they’ll start weeding out the wec guys in favour of their reality tv stars. i can see everyone with two losses in lightweight dropping down too, causing more wec firings.

DO NOT

Try and pass off the kind of shit cards you do overseas. Torontonians are passionate about our sports, but we aren’t willing to throw money away just to be part of the first UFC card here.

Toss us a less than stellar card and you’ll see just how empty the Rogers Center can look.

The "Holy Shit" factor

Shouldn’t EVERY card that costs $60 plus tax be top notch? Tom is pretty much admitting that rarely does Zuffa sell a worthwhile product.

Thanks Tom………I couldn’t agree with you more.
