Markedpk Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 I heard talk about UFC 99 being free on spike, because the recent Silva fight was a huge flop. It has happened in the past so dont count it out. "After the debacle of UFC 61, the UFC was in a quandary. Over 700,000 people bought a show to see Ken Shamrock fight Tito Ortiz, and the fight was stopped early. To make matters worse, Andrei Arlovski and Tim Sylvia had one of the worst main events in UFC history. After five rounds of hell, the show felt like a disaster" "The UFC responded by giving fans a Tito vs. Ken rematch for free on Spike TV. The show did a huge rating, and a few months later they set their buyrate record at UFC 66." Forrest Griffin vs. Anderson Silva, not Thiago Silva, set for UFC 101 (Updated) http://mmajunkie.com/news/14713/forrest-griffin-vs-anderson-silva-not-thiago-silva-targeted-for-ufc-101.mma For all the people that watch MMA here, what do you think this will do for the franchise?
Kyle|Lol The PK Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I like Forrest Griffin, but idk about him taking Silva down Hopefully this will be a better fight than watching Thales Lates (spell check) be a little bitch.
O Ce An O Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I am not too educated in UFC but my favorite is definitely Royce Gracie. He's amazing. :nice:
P4|Pink Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 I want to see 101.. I was gutted when Griffin had no title.
Markedpk Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 dnt watch UFC loldnt post on topic lol@O Ce An O Gracie tested positive for anabolic steroids like two years ago, his dosage level was x12 of a clean athlete. And i think Silva is going to rip Forrest up. (even though i like Griffin better)
Afimm Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 God i can't wait for this. I'm a die-hard Silva fan and it's gunna be good to finally see a fight where the opponent isn't scared to stand up against him. Can't wait for his 10th win in UFC. This fight is gunna be amazing.
