re: UFC 102 Predictions

Looks like Diego/BJ won't be the main event of 105 in England. They are trying to put together a third card in November. Likely the same date as Fedor's strikeforce debut. Dana White is also saying that third card won't be on spike or PPV.

Fox? ESPN?

And while UFC 105 will air on SpikeTV on Nov. 14 and UFC 106 will be seen on pay per view Nov. 21, White said the potential new date won't be viewed on either platform.
"It's Penn-Sanchez, but I don't know where yet," White said. "We're working on a deal right now. That fight might end up somewhere else – and it definitely won't be in Manchester."

White said the third November event is not yet a certainty, but he's currently working to close a deal for the new card. And should he complete the negotiations, it will apparently include a new broadcast partner as well.

The UFC president also hinted at a potential new broadcast partner for the new show, and though he declined to comment on who the new partner would be, White both promised to bury Showtime while simultaneously ruling out HBO as that potential network.
"[Showtime] sucked at boxing," White said. "They got their arse kicked by HBO, always, at boxing, yet they tried to stay in it. They got their arse kicked by HBO in programming, but they're still around.
"They're going to get their arse kicked in mixed martial arts, too – just not by HBO."
Fox? ESPN?

This is going to burn out a lot of people. Personally, I love it though.
I'm a fan of more fights. I agree, I think it will burn people out though. And 3 fights a month might be stretching it. If they really do bring in some lighter weight classes I think they could easily support two cards a month, a PPV and a fight night.

I'm for 2 cards per month. One Fight Night. And one PPV. Anymore than that and I would worry about the cards getting watered down.

I'm pretty excited about the main event in this one.
I'm pulling for Big Nog to make a comeback from his Mir fight when he was not ready, partially due to the staph infection.

Another thing. I speak Russian and it's impossible to understand Fedor. The dude mumbles worse than Shaq. It's like Mush Mouth from Fat Albert.

There can't be any way they will do 3 cards a month during football season. That's just stupid. Now after football season maybe, but damn.

I agree with that. The ppv's the fall with have to be stacked just to get decent numbers.
Craming three in, in a month will kill them.

Couture looked swole as frick at 220 at this weigh-in yet he looked like he had AIDS at 220 at the Brock weigh-in. Weird.
