UFC 149: Not PPV worthy

[Loyalty13]

yup headlining a PPV in the opponents home country doesn't warrant a break on the weight cut

[jjmmajkd]

They should just give the winner the honorary 190 lb title its not like they let anyone else fight at 190..that weight class would be awesome movement of a middle wight power of a LHW

lol yeh everyone fighter from now on should demand the weight of their choice if they fight in their opponents home country

Franklin is a joke. We get it, he's too lazy to cut weight and cant win at LHW to save his life. Not that he can win at MW anyway, he should easily win this fight though, its against wanderlie after all.

I really dont care what weight it is i just wanna see another good fight

Koch is a good test for aldo but UFC screws themselves by putting the lighter guys on the prelims. No one knows who they are except people who watch facebook/fx/fuel tv prelims. Joey benividez was # 2 in the world and fighting on facebook, while HW shit fights (not all of them) stink up the main card

But yeah, this one is going to be a tough sell. Not as tough (TUF) as UFC147 though.

if it breaks 275K buys i'd be impressed

You're right. a guy who does them a HUGE favor shouldnt be allowed 5 lbs. also, if you go back and look, UFC had him fight vitor and wandy at 195 as they were coming down from 205 to 185. it wasnt his choosing.



Maybe he should just eat a shitload of 'horsemeat' and bulk up to HW so you think he's awesome.

Bro, didn't you hear? He needed a 'high profile ' fight like Vera to take another step towards champion.

There's a shit ton more fights thsese days and I'm glad. This card is way weaker than most, but I'm still watching.

[MMA Addict]

Personally, I don't buy any PPV - I go to bars and watch the fights there so I'm not going to complain or say "This card isn't worth my time" like some.

It isn't the most stacked card we've seen this year but it is somewhat interesting and I'll be at the bar watching like every other card. $30 every other week is fine by me but $59.99.... bollocks to that.

[Huma]

I am so out of the loop on MMA now, I literally have been watching 1-2 in the last 4 months. JDS vs Mir was obv since their were a billion HWs on the card and they always deliver. WIll watch Silva vs Sonnen and go mia watching the olympics....then prob watch Hendo H bomb the fake Bentley destroyer and go mia again until the new years card.

I wonder what the actual number they have to sell to make money?
