I haven't heard anything, but I really don't have much faith in Scott Coker. I fear they throw so much money into this one tourney they'll bankrupt the organization. [Reply]

Is it on PPV or straight up Showtime? I have Showtime, so I hope it's the latter, lol. [Reply]

I believe it's on Showtime, the problem is the live gates are barely covering the payroll so the TV contract is their only margin. If they want to remain viable they have to keep putting on top notch shows or Showtime will not renew the deal. They can only ride a heavyweights only card so far. [Reply]

But man, that tournament is going to be so bad ass. Throwback to the old Pride days. [Reply]
UFC is putting on a badass card tomorrow night- I hope for a Vitor ko but won't get it, I hope Franklin ko's Forrest and Jones ko's Bader. I think I can get 2 out of 3. [Reply]
