Whats the deal with the UFCs DVD dispute? All I saw was the apology on their website. They said that they would get them out soon. Does anyone know anything about this? I am tired of seeing release dates and going to buy them and they are not there.

They cancelled all production of their dvd's - I'll try and find a link in a minute.

Basically, the company that was producing their dvd's was bought up by another company, and the UFC wants to cancel their deal and take their business elsewhere now.

Here's the UFC's explanation: http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=news.detail&gid=2745

Here's a previous thread about it: (the yahoo link is dead, otherwise I'd just link to that, but you can get people's reactions. Seems like it's just a business deal, and they should have their production started again eventually.
