[TheLukieBaby]

So I'm too lazy to write an essay but here are key points

Ufc on fox 3 2.4 million lowest of mma on network tv ever

JDS vs overeem canceled event is not as anticipated

Vitor vs Wanderlai heading brazil show that was suppost to be Sonnen / Silva II

Cruz tears ACL out for a year no match at July show & lessens exposure TUF gave

Lowest ratings of TUF ever even though it's live

Brian Stann vs Hector Lombard headlines UFC on Fox 4 , screams flop.

Dana overestimated the demand for MMA. IMO they weren't ready for network tv I haven't watched TUF since the third episode.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Too many shows. TUF is on such short intervals. And even with that it's still a better draw then pro wrestling

Wasn't JDS/Overeem canceled because Overeem failed a drug test AGAIN? (Side note: With the way that this whole Overeem steroids fiasco has gone, has he officially taken the crown from Josh Barnett as the standard bearer for this type of shyt?)

And Vitor/Vanderlei main eventing that show is ridiculous. It just HAD to be scheduled during the same weekend as the Rio+20 didn't it?

Awaits for a TSC faithful to drop the #'s

UFC has lost some serious star power. Brock Lesnar was a huge draw. Before him Chuck Liddell was. After that, no one has really stepped up to that level. Rampage could of been a even bigger star but he doesn't seem 100% into it. GSP and Anderson Silva are carrying UFC. Jones is the only new star that I can see being a draw.

nah he knew the pitfalls they all did.But the money and fuel-tv (= ufc tv) was just too good to pass up on

Never watched a UFC card that didnt feature Brock or Kimbo in his brief stint. But mainly I watched b/c of and due to Brock.

Unless ur a hardcore follower, you dont know much about any of the guys on the undercard. You just have a bunch of heatless matches, and THAT is what did in WCW in some ways.
