    I am from the uk i just watch pretty much every mma event live or on the net after the event.
    The last 2 i posted might not make some peoples lists but zaromskis had a great win in the dream gp and alvarez is just a badass.

    yeah im in the middle of downloading all the pride and dream events but its taking for ****ing ever. as your from the uk and a big mma fan i guess you can answer this, has cagerage gone out of business or just has no tv deal now?

    CR went bankrupt. They were **** anyway. Their fights were a joke. They were always bringing in some old shot to **** name. Had some decent fighters though. Silva fought there for some time as did Evagelista and Manhoef.

    Well there are some UK based ones still but they don't have any TV coverage and so aren't known like Cage Warriors for example.

    Silva vs that nutcase Morrocon who was on the run for that robbery and any bout with Manhoef spring to mind. Problem is alot of there big bouts were just nonsense. Ken Shamrock? Butterbean? James Thompson? Nah...

    well the bigger the ufc gets over here you would guess it can only be good for british mma too, maybe something will be picked up soon by some channel

    I'd be careful with that. I did it last year and killed my hard drive.:lol: Was like 100 GBs of video.

    Anyway my top 10 p4p would be:

    Fedor
    GSP
    Anderson Silva
    Miguel Torres
    Lyoto Machida
    BJ Penn
    Mike Brown
    Urijah Faber
    Rampage
    Dan Henderson

    Yeah, they also had Shoalin and Belfort for a few fights. Zaromskis who won the dream ww gp fought a few times for them. They did have a few other decents fighters fight now and then but nothing consistent.
