mightyrad Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 You're right, lower calibre fighters than recent cards, bit unfair to the UK in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epilogue1406051983 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 thats brutal... I think the most interesting fight on that card for me is cyrille diabate vs anthony perosh... thats rough for England... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sajeitto Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I truly feel sorry for the U.K. fans, they're great fans deserving of getting to see great fights but instead they keep getting stuck with the worse put-together cards of the year every year. And UFC 138 is one of the worse cards (on paper, because he could end up being an entertaining card) that the UFC has put together in the last 10+ years since Zuffa took over ownership of the UFC.

UCFMRE Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 They do get the worst cards but I sure as hell don't feel sorry for them since their hasn't been a UFC fight in Florida since a fight night about six years ago. I wish there was a fight near me as often as they have in the UK even if it was a mediocre card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Wesley_of_Wells Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 You don't need big names to have a good card. It's all about how the guys match up against each other. I agree that the UK should get a "stacked" PPV in the near future as a show of appreciation to the fans there, but this card has the potential to be one of the best in recent memory. There are at least 4 possible FOTN candidates and Munoz/Leben will likely end in a brutal KO. Not to mention the fact that it's on free TV in the U.S. What more could you ask for?

serb-1 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 lol at the mad brits, its common knowledge UFC gives you badly put together cards with not many big names, maybe you guys should protest and then maybe dana would actually put bigger names on there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there was a fight near me as often as they have in the UK even if it was a mediocre card. yeah all this feeling sorry for the uk is garbage. i'm in the virginia beach area and we have never gotten a card. so why do people feel sorry for the uk, when there are plenty of places in the states that don't get fights. let's not forget that the pay-per-views that we have to buy they get for free.

JimmyKruger Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Ok, first and foremost I agree that this is a ropey card. I don't think it is quite as bad as some have made out, but it certainly is not as good as others have campaigned. It just seems like a distinctly below-average card. I hate this idea that events in the UK must be filled with UK fighters, even at the expense of some bigger matches. And before people start climbing back upon their horses... I realise that any fight has the potential to be a good fight, but a lot of the fun in UFC is seeing how the title contendership is playing out. This card is almost totally absent of anybody currently pushing for a title shot. That is what others mean by having big names. Relevant fighters. I think it would be nice to see some title fights, or at least number one contender fights in the UK. Also, to clear up some other confusion.... We in the UK get about 2 free events a year. That might go up by one or two this year while the FOX deals are still rolling out, but we certainly do not get each event free. Though saying that, we don't PPV either. The UFC main events are nearly all shown on a channel which costs ?10-?15 per month. Which is probably around $20+ (at a guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonesyUK Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 UFC 138 is a wrestling lesson for the brits. They will love watching Munoz take Leben down at will for 25 minutes! Wrong, Munoz by tko, bleee dat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
