I used to hate Joe Silva, but...

[Gangstub]

Sean Shelby & Mick Maynard are the worst.

I'll take Joe & Sholler over these 2 goofs anyday.

Espically if were going to get cards like THIS on PPV...

Just like UFC getting rid of Goldberg, I told people you don't know what you have till it's gone, and now we got Todd Grishm.

I can now say the same with Joe/Sholler and Shelby/Maynard.

At least their MO isn't to feed feel old legends to young jobbers as much as they were before.

Killed me to see fights like Gomi vs Jury and Lil Nog vs Rumble.

They can all be horrible. You don't have to force yourself to like one more over the other.

What are you talking about!? Those were the best!

The card in the above pic is the Australia UFC 221 card in 2 weeks. Even though it's a PPV it's like all Aussie cards in that it has plenty of Aussie fighters who rarely show up on NA cards. Cheaper for the UFC to use local guys vs flying NA fighters there and vice versa.

But I agree, outside of the main event this card look weak. 4 of the 5 main card fights feature unranked Aussie fighters. I won't be paying $65 for it.

That's always been the recipe bro. Will always be. It's called passing the torch in normal speech. It's called push in the business.

UFC is going down the shitter right before our eyes guys

its very worrying that we are getting PPV's like this so far in 2018. I thought UFC 220 was awful but of course the 2 top fights were great, but the rest of it which is 11 more fights were very poor. I was watching the prelims thinking this is like some really bad random UFC Fight Night in the middle of nowhere

 

[mikehunt]

good old Joe

UFC 220 will break the record for lowest PPV buys ever I think. 80k? I'm thinking it doesn't break 80k. And they just upped the price lol.

Casual fans are the worst..

80K is way higher than the lowest,even under Zuffa.

No it's not. We're talking modern era here. 80k would shatter worst of all time. Which, according to my exhaustive research, was 95,000 buys for MM at UFC 174.

good old Joe

is that one of the Hodge twin brothers?

 

[CountOfSoCal]

I wanna say the same thing, but then I looked at PPV’s within the past couple years, and realized it’s roughly the same.

Look at 196’s main card aside from Conor/Diaz and Holm/Tate, its not big on name value.

Do you know what ever means?So what's modern era?After TUF finale in 2005?UFC 174 still wouldn't be the lowest.

 

[L.T.]

Ok lol.So what's modern era?After TUF finale in 2005?UFC 174 still wouldn't be the lowest.

Then what is bro. Any UFC after UFC 100 how about that. Name one that was lower after UFC 100.
