Not everybody can afford $45.99 a month to get 1-2 top tier fights, never mind the subscription channels that all the other orgs shows come on. I almost wish that the big shows were still putting on a show every 2 months with more stacked cards. $45.99 for 3 basically no name fights and 2 potential good headlining fights is ridiculous, back in the day we paid $29.99 plus tax for 8-12 generally stacked fights now we are force fed Zuffa's massively watered down once a month cards which often leave you wishing you had not paid for the fights at all, it seems Zuffa makes 1 solid card for 2-3 lackluster ones, Yes we've seen alot of dream matchups come to life but Zuffa is pretty much selling 1 fight at a time for $45 a month, It is ingenius in the moneymaking aspect but we don't want to be over saturated with all these lame fights on the side, MMA is turning into Boxing where we know the headliners but the undercard leaves us scratching our heads. All I can say is thank God for the internet and video uploading websites. I support mma and buy lots of dvds and gear and such but I refuse to pay for the overpriced watered down 1-2 good fight cards.

Done and Done. Hey, it worked on Spike for UFN13; it may do the trick here too.

Sadly, email campaigns are like verbal agreements, they're not worth the paper they're written on.

How can you be content with the thought that they might not show the Pequeno fight!?!?!?!


On a side note, guys I was once negative and angry about this whole thing, I felt there were'nt enough real MMA fans to get this to work, but thinking negatively won't be getting us anywhere.

It doesn't even take a minute to copy and paste one of Brackis's prewritten emails and send it, so even if you don't think this thing won't go through, you won't lose anything except for 30 seconds to send an email. Lets try to start thinking postive because we can do this guys.
