It'll probably be just here and there. DVDs aren't a big selling point for them.

As there are so many UFC events these days, it's probably not worth the expense and "bother" to release them all on Blu-ray... most of the important stuff makes it to Blu-ray one way or another though - usually in the "Best Of" the year releases and things like "Ultimate KO's" and "Ultimate Heavyweights". And I'd definitely recommend the 6-disc "Ultimate 100 Greatest Fights" set...  |

Yeah... I used to buy nearly every PRIDE and UFC DVD - since the advent of HD though, I only get the Blu-rays now.
Here's a list I found of all the Blu-rays they've released so far:
Ultimate Comebacks
Best Of 2008
Ultimate Knockouts 7
UFC 100
The Ultimate 100 Greatest Fights
Best Of 2009
Rampage Greatest Hits
UFC Presents: Aldo Vs Faber
UFC Presents: Best Of WEC
Ultimate Submissions
Ultimate Heavyweights
Ultimate Knockouts 8
Best Of 2010
Ultimate Royce Gracie
UFC: Bad Blood
Ultimate Matt Hughes
Ultimate Knockouts 9
I have about half of them... the rest are on my Amazon wish-list, lol.

I'm a HUGE DVD collector when it comes to UFC, WWE & TNA. I buy everything that comes out, be it dvd or blu ray. To answer your question, I don't think UFC will be releasing their numbered shows anytime soon on blu ray. I compare the situation to WWE's blu ray releases. For a little while they released blu rays of the big 4. Then for a while they produced PPVs on blu ray (8 out of 9 in a row), then all of a sudden stopped abruptly, which has bee speculated on being because of poor sales. UFC does still release a blu ray on average every 2 months or so, so if you only own 2-3 releases so far, you can spend your time and $$$ catching up on those.
From the following list, I own the ones with an * next to it:
Ultimate Comebacks*
Best Of 2008*
Ultimate Knockouts 7*
UFC 100*
The Ultimate 100 Greatest Fights*
Best Of 2009*
Rampage Greatest Hits*
UFC Presents: Aldo Vs Faber*
UFC Presents: Best Of WEC*
Ultimate Submissions*
Ultimate Heavyweights
Ultimate Knockouts 8
Best Of 2010*
Ultimate Royce Gracie*
UFC: Bad Blood*
Ultimate Matt Hughes* (just bought this one today)
Ultimate Knockouts 9
As you see I only need 3 to complete the set. I'm in no rush to buy them though, I'll get them when the prices dip a little bit, or when I find a good deal on ebay.
And so you know, Best Buy is having a sale on the Best of Yearly editions, I saw a tag at BB this morning BO2008 or 09 for only $7.99. Great price for a great bd!
