Elitexc/Strikeforce taking everything off youtube

Probably the wrong place to post this.

But does this really anoy anyone else? surely having it up there is like free advertising for the quality of fights they put up? It's not even like it's easy to buy the event now.

Personaly i think it can effect the growth of a company popularity, Im one of many that will sit on youtube looking up fights on my lunch break, only to then go to the orgs page and keep an eye out for upcoming fights/ppv.

grr!

Still havent seen Shamrock v Baroni (and im in Scotland which makes it even harder!)

i guess they just want there ratings to be high for the re -air on showtime sat. night. i guess they dont think about the people in other countries that cannot watch it any other way than youtube.

The event is being televised this Saturday (6/30) on Showtime. Although, you can't get SHO overseas... too bad... you missed a good one.

oh, sorry... you guys knew that as I read the whole thread. The reason YouTube can't have it is copyright... networks can't allow others to steal any portion of any show... Showtime delivers clips to utube, but not whole fights.

Maybe Showtime is behind this, they will be replaying the event Saturday night.
