The UFC should make a deal with Spike to show all the events on tv.... I wonder how much they make from each payperview, because maybe they can get a better deal through Spike since so many more people would watch.

A deal was reached with HBO and announced unofficially today.

Yeah that would be cool for Bisping. I'm still blown away by Matt Serra. I was hoping that he would win but didn't hold out much hope for him.

Box5 : They can't make a deal with Spike. It's against the rules to have a real time event broadcast live that is not on PPV. For it to be on regular TV it has to be a non exhibit fight or be on time delay. I think that the only reason they are getting away with this one is because it's in another country.

Hopefully they'll start to consider it a sport like basketball or baseball, so they can show it on TV.

What about the Fight night live shows they do, are they on a couple minute time delay or somthing?

I hear you. Fedor seems unstoppable. He does not look like much, but this guy knows MMA fighting. He took Crocop out with ease.

Actually Fedor said the CroCop fight was his toughest to date.
It did go a full 3 rounds and went to decision.
