    Now I'm as hardcore a boxing fan as any and a fleeting UFC fan at best who only knows the names of 3 or 4 fighters, but when GSP is fighting I'm tuning in because first of all he is from Quebec and secondly the guy combines skills, technique and conditioning beautifully.

    So I heard on the radio that this is apparently the biggest UFC card of all time. And I was wondering is there a chance that this card will surpass Oscar vs PBF PPV numbers or not?

    Pacquiao-Mayweather is the only PPV on the planet that could come close to breaking this record.

    UFC 100 isnt the best of cards. Nobody really cares about that ****** Bisping and Henderson is old as ****.

    UFC 100 will most likely surpass Pac-DLH but thats it. i dont think it will surpass DLH-Floyd.

    They will certainly do more than a million buys.Not bad considering they put on PPV events every ****ing month and their numbers are staggering.
    UFC is the biggest selling sporting event for the past few years.

    Its a possibility I know people who have never bought a PPV but have said they would definitely buy Floyd-Pac. It. Has. To. Happen.

    Bull****, I have about 8 people coming round my gaff to watch UFC 100 tonight and it will be our first UFC event for 5 of the 9 of us. Everybody just wants to see Bisping fight (most of the people who are coming have got the UFC game and everybody likes fighting with Bisping, even though they had 0 intrest in UFC before the game came out). Nobody gives a **** about Lesnar V whoever, were all staying up till stupid'0'clock to see the The Count!
