    Ahh good so it wasn't just me then. :D
    These guys were acting like it was Monday night "Football" -NFL.

    The fights were good at least. Doubt I'll be watch too many more ''live'' UFC on Fox broadcasts though, Id prefer the option to skip the patronising BS

    Il watch the main card if its interesting enough. But i'm not into the FOX presentation at all. And most of the UFC cards just too meh for me. Id rather go down to York Hall and watch a quality 4 rounder.

    The next card is key for the UFC on Fox. They have a PPV draw in Machida on there, but his star is fading. I guess they are hoping to make guys like Lombard, Bader (3rd time lucky) and especially Stann off the back of Lyoto. Stann will get a shot if he beats Lombard, but if Hector wins then that's a no sell. If this one doesnt draw numbers then they'll either have to sacrifice a few PPV headliners (Jones/GSP/Anderson are seemingly the only draws) but lose buys to save face or they will have to eat some serious ****ing crow about how strong the brand is in selling fights alone to casual fans

    Dont be surprised to see BJ Penn on Fox soon
