hi i've fingerd it out

I think if you watched The Comeback you'd know more, and better, about Serra. That guy was pretty much the reason why most of his team made it into the finals.

I watched almost the entire season, even though it was boring as hell whenever Shonie wasn't on screen. Serra's a great coach, one of the better ones out there probably. That doesn't mean he's a top-level fighter, and it doesn't mean that I don't still think that he's kinda annoying.

It's not much of a card. They aren't even trying to sell it on PPV here, they're just giving it away for free on Spike.

The States is the only place where it's free, and the card sounds pretty good to me - Crocop, Arlovski, Bisping....

I never really got into UFC but I saw a special on Bravo which had tracked the career of Bispin and had interviews etc.. I may start watching it more often. I'm pretty sure our shows are out of date but I think they'll still be worth a look.

Probably why I said they aren't trying to sell it here. Not that there's a whole lot of difference since almost all of their PPV buys are domestic.

And look at the guys you listed. Mirko is a legit star, but he should knock Gonzaga out early (which I guess is kinda entertaining in it's own right). Bisping will be a big deal to the UK fans at the show, and I like him, but he's really never done much of note as a fighter. His biggest accomplishment was crushing an incredibly weak field on TUF. From what I've seen he still has a ton of holes in his game. And Arlovski was a great fighter, but he hasn't been anything special since he got hurt. In the suddenly awesome UFC heavyweight division (who'd have thought we'd been saying that a year ago?), he's probably nowhere near the title picture. Look, it could be a great show, because in MMA, you really never know what you're going to get. But just looking at it on paper, it doesn't look like anything too special to me. I'll still watch because it's free, but this is one I wouldn't buy. Now UFC 71, with Rampage vs Chuck? THAT'S a show I'll pay to see.

I would definitely encourage you to at least give it a try. It's a lot of fun to watch, and with the current influx of talent, there's really no better time to start getting into it.

yes, sums up this post perfectly. Since you already did that, my reply is kind of redundant, but then again I am kind of a redundant guy.

I keep missing the proper UFC but every so often I catch UFC Unleashed which says they show you the best bits anyway.
