I was actually making this thread while you posted it, but it's all good.
I don't even get Fuel so I'll probably have to watch it at a bar or something. This is a very rare 6-fight main card on TV. Not sure 6 fights have ever been on the main card for a TV event. Oh well. No complaints.
For those who are wondering, the Facebook prelims begin around 6:20pm ET/3:30pm PT, with the main card starting at 8pm ET/5pm PT.
The event will be available on Sportsnet (Canada), OneHD (Australia) and UFC.tv (UK, etc).

Such a damn shame I won't be able to watch this on Comcast. Weird thing is, Comcast OnDemand offers numerous free things involving UFC on Fuel TV (I think the entire "Best of 2011" is there), but the channel itself is nowhere to be found. I'm praying this card pops up on that section within the week.
Anyways, seems like a really good free card. Kind of hard not to be bitter over being unable to see it.

Went out last night, Fuel showed UFC 136 in its entirety. Thought it was mildly hilarious how everyone there thought it was live.
I saw a total of ONE advertisement for the card today. It was like 15 seconds long, too.

It's a shame they don't put these Fuel TV fights free on their website (or something)... it seems hardly anyone can actually watch Fuel TV(?).
I'm going to tune in at 1am (UK time) to see if I can watch it through UFC.TV or Facebook...

Surprised the ref didn't stop the fight when Menjivar was against the fence. That's about as close as a fight gets to being finished.

I laughed really hard when Diego came out.
The cross > Yes! YES! YES!
Oh & why was the main only 3 rounds? Did I miss something there?

Dana basically said he  ed up with not making this 5 rounds and all future main events at every show will be 5. Shame because this was an excellent fight and I thought it was five until the end of third and they said it was finished. |

"Oh & why was the main only 3 rounds? Did I miss something there? "
yea, word, i asked that about the guillard/miller fight (which didnt end up going to decision anyway, deeming the question irrelevant)... good to hear dana has said every main event from here on will be 5.

We were watching last night at a bar & they were playing music over the broadcast, so I had no clue. I read the Dana article on MMAJunkie & it says that the FX2 & Fuel 2 main events will only be 3 rounds because the contracts are already signed. At least I know know. |
