Man

They have to keep doing this now…I don’t know if it has a major impact on PPV buys…it’s probably minimal…but it damn sure makes fans feel as if they get some bang for their buck….if you buy the PPV you get to see a minimum of 7 fights….that’s outstanding.

Pretty annoying that they re-aired stuff though – even though I didn’t actually watch the Spike prelims, but still.

Bloody hell.

Really?

You were annoyed that they reshowed fights that a) you didn’t see to begin with and b) were pretty damn good and worth seeing a second time?

Wow.

I'm the kind of girl who loves to watch a GOOD fight!

This is the danger with the two free prelims… There’s plenty of fighters prone to decisions that are still exciting to watch though so with a little creative match-making it shouldn’t be an issue.

Bloody hell.
