"The Shartist" has a nice write up a few fanposts below...

I work nights and finish up right around when it airs on HDNet. Trouble is I tend to crash before the main event because it takes 3 1/2 – 4 hrs to culminate, Ha.
I’m all about recreating the glamor and and grandeur like PrideFC did, but it needs to be tightened up a bit and shortened to 3hrs max. If they could do that without sacrificing the total num. of fights, I feel they could generate more interest for us overseas folk (N. America)

Santiago is a beast. He had a bad night recently but I hope he comes like he usually fights this time.
