'UFC All Access' with Wanderlei Silva to debut on MTV2

Wanderlei MTV2
"UFC All Access" with light heavyweight Wanderlei Silva will debut on MTV2 on Thursday, December 27, 2007, at 1 a.m. ET, according to UFC.com.

This also marks the programming debut for the organization on MTV2 -- SpikeTV had run the popular one-hour series on its network exclusively up until this latest news. SpikeTV will still air the episode at 12:30 a.m. ET that same late evening.

Here's the snip:

"Go behind the scenes with Octagon Girl Rachelle Leah as she hangs out with UFC light heavyweight fighter Wanderlei Silva. See what's happening with Wanderlei as he prepares to fight Chuck Liddell - the fight everyone in MMA has wanted to see for years."

"The Axe Murderer" (sans X-Treme Couture gear) is preparing for his upcoming showdown with former light heavyweight champion, Chuck Liddell, at UFC 79: "Nemesis" on December 29 from the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Fortunately, it appears that the addition of MTV2 (no word on whether it is temporary or permanent) did not affect the job status of former UFC ring girl and current "UFC All Access" host, Rachelle Leah.

Phew.

This episode will re-air on MTV2 during a normal hour at Friday, December 28, 2007, at 10 p.m. ET.

Important to note: SpikeTV is a division of MTV Networks, which is a unit of Viacom.
