I bet the deal/show with FSN will fold as soon as the contract runs out and a much better deal/show will take it's place.
The FSN deal is really bad imo. From the news back when the deal was signed, Pride basically bought the (bad) time slot like an infomercial would. But rather than being an infomercial they do their show and then re-sell the commercial spots to advertisers. Based on the shows ratings, time slots and contents, I doubt that it's making any money or many news fans. It was a perfect risk-free way for FSN to test out MMA, considering they were paid for it up front. MMA has come a long way since that deal was made, Pride deserves something better and the new management will get them something better.
