"Huerta and Ken Flo on ESPN deportes"
Thats a great idea that would help with a lot with a new demographic the UFC might want to break into, there were rumors of a UFC in Mexico at one point and they did do a show once in Puerto Rico.

It's great for MMA and Kenny should be a good ambassador/commentator on ESPN.

What I would love to see is more things like this get done on TV, Inside MMA on HDnet has really limited viewers and doesnt get any supports from The UFC.

There are only pictures of fights and never videos of finishes but I guess that is them trying to protect their product and PPV encores.

He did a great job at UFC 83, maybe the UFC is grooming him as more then a fighter.

I hope he replaces Joe Rogan I think Kenny is better then him anyway...

is this an UFC only show or MMA show? i'm weary of show hosted by an org representatitve and it's implication in the show's fair take on the world of mma. I hope they talk about the japanese scene and the elite strikeforce scene in addition to just UFC stuff.

I seriously doubt there will be a weekly MMA show, ESPN, if only because big fights don't happen nearly often enough.

I'm a huge Florian fan but I don't think this is a good move. Don't get me wrong. I'll watch, listen and learn but I don't think this is going to settle well with the 'good' folks at Zuffa. They don't seem to like to have media about them that they don't control. I'd almost go so far as to say that I'd bet Zuffa will resign Kenny to undercards until his contract ends and drop him. We'll see.
