Mr. Sam said:Does anybody know how the UK is getting this event yet!?
Indeed, 13 picks for Alves is way higher than I would expect. I won't be shattered if GSP loses but I just like his presence and attitude, I'll be rooting for him for sure.Stoney Mason said:That is a high number of picks against GSP relative to his usual fights. Whether people want to believe it or not Alves is a legit challenge and far more one than BJ Penn ever was due to the weight differences between Penn and GSP.
Pros who picked St. Pierre: 20
Pros who picked Alves: 13
Pros who did not decide: 2

i got my girlfriend to start watching it (more so by sheer will than her actually being interested in it) and now she is just as hooked as me. granted, i am more that crazed fan who reads everything i can get and read the mma news sites every day, so i am a little more up to date than most. i think it is a lot easier to be in tune and to care about mma than it is for must other sports- most pro sports guys are such big stars you oftentimes dont see them as real people, but most of the mma fighters you see seem pretty down to earth and genuine. i dont know if that is because the money is not there yet, or if it is because it is still a relatively young sport, but i hope that is not something that changes.TOM f'N CRUISE said:i don't know any girls that are into it. if i ever see a girl waring a UFC or any other kind of MMA fighting shirt i will be in love.

I guess Jake Shields would be next.. if he can get his ass to the ufc.
Mike Swick.. maybe?
My wife is into MMA now after I got her to watch TUF. Now she will watch most of the fights with me, although she certainly doesn't have the same level of passion for it that I do and she doesn't understand/appreciate the grappling/groundwork as much.TOM f'N CRUISE said:i don't know any girls that are into it. if i ever see a girl waring a UFC or any other kind of MMA fighting shirt i will be in love.
Busty said:Was going to post the exact same thing. As far as I know it's a toss up between Virgin 1, Bravo and Channel 5 to air the event possibly live.
The general thinking is that ESPN will take a long term contract with someone stepping in to air UFC 100 on a short term contract.
I have my fingers crossed for Virgin 1 or Channel 5 personally.
he fights kampmann at ufc 103, i would bet that person will get the next title shot.dem said:If GSP wins.. he will have basically cleaned out the division.

screw you guys in europe! americans get to pay these guys salaries i guess! as said on fightlinker-UFC 100, the biggest mixed martial arts event in history, will be televised live on multiple platforms in the United Kingdom this coming Saturday, July 11, the Ultimate Fighting Championship organisation has confirmed.
British UFC fans have two ways of experiencing the greatest night in mixed martial arts history live: on Sky Channel 433 and online at UFC.com. Fans will be able to catch all the action from the biggest fight night of the year completely free of charge.
As an exciting bonus to British fans, Sky Channel 433s UFC 100 coverage will begin at 9pm, Saturday, as a 9-hour UFC marathon gets underway with all five episodes of the UFCs Top 100 Fights.
This will be followed by the official Countdown to UFC 100 program which then leads into 3am, where the spotlight turns to Las Vegas, as the biggest MMA show of all time goes LIVE.
UK fight fans unable to join the televised action on Sky Channel 433 need not worry, though, for they can also catch every punch, kick and submission at UFC 100 by logging on to UFC.com.
Those fans are encouraged to log-on to UFC.com for details on how they can watch UFC 100 live online.
Included on the historic UFC 100 card are UFC Championship battles between heavyweight juggernauts Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir and welterweight wrecking machines Georges St. Pierre and Thiago Alves.
Plus, Ultimate Fighter coaches collide as British superstar Michael The Count Bisping and former PRIDE champion Dan Henderson throw-down in a middleweight showdown.
Beyond UFC 100, there are further exciting announcements in the pipeline for British UFC fans.
It will be interesting to see how tight they lock up the uk.ufc.com stream the last time they did a region stream was that anti-Affliction 1 Silva vs Irvin card and all it took was a simple proxy service for anyone in the blocked North American region to spoof their location and watch the event. But that was a free show, so who knows how tight this event will be locked up? All I know is if they slack on the security, theres going to be a lot of non-British people saving 45 bucks this weekend.
UFC 100, the biggest mixed martial arts event in history...
Kintaro said:Is this planned to be so or is this a hype piece? I remember PrideFC New Years Eve shows doing disgusting numbers but I honestly don't know how the two compare. I mean, Pride had 67,450 at Final Conflict 2003. 70,000 at the K-1 co -event.

belchers shirt, off of fightlinker. pretty 1337 stuff huh? seriously, what stereotypical mma shirt things did they NOT put on there?
Brian Fellows said:HAHA really. Why cant someone make a normal looking MMA shirt?
Brian Fellows said:I get so sick of people talking about a division being cleaned out. A division is NEVER cleaned out. Especially when that champ will have only defended his title 3 times.
The winner or Swick/Kampmann would be next IMO.
SnakeXs said:So apparently Crop Cop evens the score by screwing Dream, backing out of his Dream 10 fight, to come back to the UFC to fight Junior Dos Santos at UFC 103?
What a clusterfuck.
