    because not one of those guys is a ppv draw. That card wouldn't even sell 250,000 buys.

    I agree it's a great card but there's a difference between a great ppv card and a great free card. Ufc 156 is a great ppv card.

    No title fight but still an awesome card.

    I wish theyd stack the fx cards like this.

    Can't believe this is a free card. The UFC has stepped it up big time, can't wait.

    War Wanderlei.

    Hey! Don't ruin my free card!

    I think Fox can also make money without PPV and it builds a fan base.
    Rory, BJ, Benson, Nate and all was also a free insane card. (though the production looked cheap with all the cut-aways ;)

    This is one of the best free cards so far.

    I was just looking at the cards and totally agree. 158 should be good too.

    Good card. I hope Okami v. Lombard is exciting to watch.

    I'm glad there is No tittle fight. I'm sick of watching guys fight to not lose instead of trying to win.

    It's not a PPV because the main event is not relevant (though it will probably be awesome). Anyway great card, can't wait.

    Shogun vs Hendo had 250k buy (wanderlei was fighting too)
    this as a ppv would be less than 150k buys.
    but nonetheless it is by far the best fuel card
