man FOX has to be regretting the money they dumped into UFC big time.
trust me, Im a fan of the UFC and I know its wayy wayyyy wayyy better than what has been showed on fox but man have their been some absolute dumps of fights shown on the network. just very unlucky.
that first fight tonight was absolutely awful..the 3rd i have never seen 2 guys to tired..they were throwing punches that were so slow it looked two 4 year olds cat fighting.
First fight with Dos Santos/ Brown Pride had incredible ratings. I have a feeling tonight will have good ratings as well. Business as usual. They don't care about the quality of fights, per se, as long as they get good ratings.
UFC died when the ultimate fighter was created.
Bring PRIDE back.. Tired of this generic/wrestling shit.

it will pick up, I read it was a 7 yr deal, events and programming on fox, fx, fuel ... 100 mil a yr ... which is smart, they made 250mil in 2008 from PPV's but u cant have a PPV every wk, not many people could afford to buy all that shit... this whay u get to hold more live events, make a extra 100mil a yr, and attract more fans
forgot about the Dos Santos fight....that was the only good thing that has come out of this deal. but even that for the casual fan they are trying to draw in, the fight was over in no time.
highly doubt they are bringing in any new viewers from tonights card. Rashad destroyed Phil Davis but really in unimpressive fashion...Bones is going to KILL Rashad if he comes out like that again.
would be so much better if all these wrestlers just went somewhere and jumped off a bridge. people want to see striking, kicking boxing, muay thai, jj..ectOriginally Posted by King Mayan
First time watching UFC was the first two fights on fox and fx.
Both lasted about 30 seconds.
Will not watch anymore. Can't believe people pay for this

I think Fox will need to make the broadcasts more exciting if they want good ratings. They'll hold their own and try to make the most of the deal, but I've felt so un-enthused during their broadcasts compare to when UFC is on Spike and elsewhere. Even the Strikeforce cards on Showtime are so much better than how these Fox broadcasts have been.
Everyone hating on wrestlers in here. So eliminate takedowns and submision game in MMA?
Watch boxing or kick boxing then.

I dont like the black football anouncer on there, couture is ok, but boring, Lesnar would be a better ... I agree with the TNT basketball/ESPN analogy
this is my point exactly. even though I know its much better than what has been shown. the first time watcher is probably dumb founded how people could watch it.First time watching UFC was the first two fights on fox and fx.

what it needs to be most entertaining is more fights. there were 3 fights in 2 hours 13 minutes. Make the undercard 2 hours and put 2 of those fights in between the 3 main card fights.
If you want more viewers you need more action. The main card was much too slow.
submissions artists are great but guys like Jon Fitch are ******* terrible to watch.

why the hell was Evans Davis a 5 rounder anyway? it wasnt a title fight
they had prelims, were they on another channel? ... I would have rather watched Beltran get Knocked out
Not sure I agree with this
Many great fighters have come out of TUF, although I'm sure some of them would have made it into the UFC regardless
Prelims were on Facebook and Fuel TV
UFC was at its best back in the old days
No weight classes, no gloves, no dress code
It was real street fights. Shut has changed
exactly what I was thinking watching the fights. Obviously the thinking was(by FOX execs) was that the sport is growing at a rapid rate and it would just blow up once it's on broadcast television and more people are exposed to it. Unfortunately, the fights on FOX have been horrible. I mean the nature of the sport with wrestlers and ground game are going make a lot of the fights pretty boring, but when you have fights with guys gassing out in the 2nd round(which happened in 2 of the 3 fights on the main card) or a guy getting knocked out 15 seconds into the fight(the first ever fight on FOX Velasquez/Dos Santos), that's not going to appeal to the casual fan. I'm a big MMA fan and I'll watch no matter what, but I can't imagine the casual sports fan that tuned into the FOX shows will be inclined to watch again. You know Dana White and FOX execs have to be shaking their heads right now.
It was a big commercial to sell the upcoming pay per views...
Once I saw the Evans piece they did on him before the fight I knew he was gonna win easily...
Don't even get me started on the Sonnen fight, the put the most over rated fighter on the planet in there with Sonnen hoping he'd win easily and it almost backfired...
The almighty dollar gets us all in the end...
As exciting and entertaining as UFC is I think they may be better off having 3-4 less pay per view events per year and ensure the cards are better...
that was my first and last time watching that shit. rather watch the replays online than plan my whole day around a 1 minute fight
When will they have 1 heavy weight vs 2 welter weights?
main events are 5 rounds now, not just title bouts
Too many fights too close together. Making it like Friday night fights on ESPN.
Funny how people are complaining about "free" stuff!
UFC is blowing up by the second. I promise you don't need to spend any time worrying about their well being. Now boxing on the other hand.....
People that didn't like the product just didn't have enough $$$ on the matchups.
People complaining about a 30 second fight in the ufc. How many people bought mike Tyson ppv?
If they had gone 10 minutes u'd be saying it was boring and why wasnt there a finish!First time watching UFC was the first two fights on fox and fx.

Amazing how many dummies ther are on here
they have been sticking the wrong people on free tv ... I understand they put sonnen on their, cuz hes a showman ... and lesnar because of his fame ... but why not cung lee or a match like big country/carwin
Can't get mad at this guy vaughany. These are the kinds of people Dana is going after, with these fox shows. They haven't been great shows. Dana like to give bullshit matchups on the free shows. The good cards are ppv events.If they had gone 10 minutes u'd be saying it was boring and why wasnt there a finish!
