Dude, you're looking at it from the wrong perspective. Yes, announcing action figures on CNBC seems a bit much, but it's great that the UFC was able to make the announcement in such a setting. By doing so the UFC gained great exposure and gained publicity for the Thursday announcement from a media outlet they otherwise wouldn't have utilized. For the people that watched CNBC today the majority probably aren't fans, so if they follow up on Thursday they may see the UFC's announcement as being big even if the diehards don't.
