    What's the likelihood of them just scrapping Bektic's fight and moving up a prelim?

    Would probably move up Martins vs Santos, I'd argue the winner of that fight is a top 15 LW. Weird fight though pitting 2 Brazilians against each other in the UK.

    Yea I'm just not a big fan of these ppl who make everything about religion and "remember the name" is 1000% about his last name being Muhammad.

    I dunno exciting fighter, first fight i saw of his was against Steve Carl for the Titan FC WW Title at the end of April. He was given the Jouban fight on short notice and showed off a great chin + a lot of heart and then dominated Montano in his last fight. Little surprised they threw him on the 205 card, but his opponent Lyman Good is from NY.

    these short notice guys are putting on quite a show man its been great. idk how many people actually had Moreno beating Smolka.. That whole TUF has been great so far due to the skill of the guys coming in. competition has been great

    Normal American PPV schedule. Only way they show big time PPV or FOX cards in Europe is super late over there. There was a time back in like 07'-09' where they tape delayed PPV's, but that s--- wont fly in 2016.

    Anyways Fight Pass Prelims at 7 ET, FS1 at 8 and PPV at 10.

    Well i mean American PPV buyers is how the UFC makes its money. You still got Anderson Silva vs Michael Bisping at a regular time but for the most part if you want good cards thats how it has to be.

    Still think they shoulda bumped it up an hour or 2. Would be nice to not finish a PPV at 12:30-1AMish for once

    I wanna say it was like 5 years ago they went to a 9 ET start for the PPV's, but that didn't last. Not sure what the reason was, might have effected West Coast buys.

    The earlier cards the better for me, always like the Afternoon European cards but obviously they're not normally of the best quality.

    edit: BTW that Mike Perry/Danny Roberts fight was awesome, maybe a top 5 FOTY.

    Stoppage came a little late though.
