Not to start a MMA/Boxing debate but I do think that the UFC is a little scared to go up against Pacquiao/Cotto this saturday (Easy 2,000,000 PPV buys). Besides there's a reason why UFC 105 is free, since Couture is the only really big name on that whole card. It's partly a business move to let people see what it's like to order an event and to spread there name even more. I just wish Boxing would remarket itself and air more/better fights on cable. In short I may check it out, not much of a MMA person but I may at least watch Couture.

Or you know... You could watch two guys who know how to fight and aren't going to hump each other in spandex. You know, one of the biggest superfights of the year. Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto.

Anyway haters get out of the thread. Hopefully these fights will be decent. Most of the time the free ones rare actually good. Sometimes better then the PPV event.

I agree. Does anyone else feel Big John McCarthy called the Fedor v. Rogers fight a little too early? I mean Rogers was stil guarding his face, he hadn't gone limp or curled up in the fetal position. I think the end result would have been the same, but I definitely wanted to see more or at least a "real" knock out.

If you got nothing to say about this event, then do not come in here and derail this thread. Pacman/Cotto should be a great fight, but this is not about that fight. Make your own discussion thread about that fight if you want to discuss it.

I think Big John knew what was about to happen if he did not stop it. Rogers was out on the way down it looked like.

I doubt it, I haven't had a chance to see the Nielsen ratings for these types of events, but I can only assume they will pull in big numbers.
