Watch UFC 143 pay-per-view (PPV) event in 3-D

Ufc143_3d_email_600x150_jpg_medium

How real can it get? Three dimensional (3-D) real!

If you can't make it to Las Vegas, Nevada, this weekend (Feb. 4, 2012) for UFC 143, which is headlined by an the interim welterweight title fight between Nick Diaz and Carlos Condit, perhaps you may want to upgrade your viewing experience right in your own home.

That's because, for the first time in Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) history, the promotion will offer a pay-per-view (PPV) event in 3-D. For only $10 more HD subscribers -- and $20 extra smackers more for those who don't prefer HD -- mixed martial arts (MMA) fans can take their UFC experiences to the next level for a $64.99 price tag.

For the virtual-impaired among us, a 3-D upgrade will allow you to view the images on your screen with a high perception of depth, giving you the feeling of being right in the middle of the action.

This from In Demand senior vice president of programming Mark Boccardi:

Star-divide

"This is a milestone for the industry irrespective of the buys and performance. This is more about us making a statement to the industry that we're bringing 3D PPV as a new potential source of revenue to the cable industry going forward."

Of course, to be able to enjoy the event in all of its third dimension glory, you will have to have a 3D-ready television set and a compatible HD set-top box. The package also includes a stream to all of the under card action on Facebook/FX, as well as the three-hour UFC 143 "Countdown" show, which also includes weigh in coverage and behind the scenes action.

UFC 143 in 3-D will also be available in movie theaters nationwide -- for information on which theaters will carry the event in their respective regions click here.

Anyone ready to pony up the extra coin to experience UFC 143 in 3-D? If so, kick your feet up on that coffee table and get ready to put those hands up and duck, just in case it gets a little too intense.

And yes, Octagon girls Arianny Celeste, Brittany Palmer and Chandella Powell will be in 3-D, too.

yeah, one of the theaters by me is playing it in 3D too!

I’m very tempted to go, but then I can’t drink while I watch the fights and I will miss some of the prelims since I’d be driving to the theater, but then again, I can simply DVR the FX prelims.

Hmmmmmmmm, decisions decisions. its $25 at the theater or I can watch at my bro’s for $10

No place is San Antonio showing it in 3D. Lame. 25 bucks is pretty pricey

at that price considering I can’t drink, can’t smoke and still have to buy shit to eat AND I gotta get my girl a ticket and try and convince my homies to go. Not worth it even if they showed it here in SA. I get too fucked up during the PPVs, getting up to get another beer every 15 min, packing bowls, rolling Js, eating to fuck with 3D and those annoying glasses. Id have to be sitting completely still, all zombied out, staring at the screen for the 3D to make any difference. Prob gonna stick to my normal HD.
