New York, NY, August 12, 2009 – Spike TV will present a special cable telecast of some of the most exciting bouts from UFC 100, one of the biggest nights in the history of mixed martial arts, on Saturday, August 15 at 10:00pm-12:30am ET/PT. Featuring Brock Lesnar’s coronation as heavyweight king and Dan Henderson’s must-see knockout over Michael Bisping, the Spike TV telecast marks the first time that bouts from this landmark event will be televised off of Pay-Per-View.
Heavyweight Championship Bout
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir

Well, this is certainly interesting. Of the six fights, three weren't shown on pay per view, so this is an interesting twist on this.

Smart move by the UFC, especially mixing those big fights with unaired prelims. Not too good for Strikeforce.
Bloody hell.
So
I finally get to see the Jon Jones fight…
