Is UFC 228 the least exciting (PPV) card of the year?

[Endziel]

Edit: Updated main event

Maybe but Yair vs Zabit is one of the most exciting matchups of the year.

If you think Yair vs Zabit is unexciting, I do not know what to tell you. That kind of fight makes a seemingly unexciting card great by itself. You could build a card around that fight, we all know that for now it's the "real" main event.

Think about the upcoming Nebraska card, as a whole it isn't crazy, but Gaethje vs Vick is such a good matchup that it makes the whole night great.

 

[Danespina]

It needs a main event still.

Woodley, Ortega, or Cyborg.

 

[LaneTM]

Arent they adding WW title fight? Idk I'll talk shit about it but still order and watch happily

 

[Matthew Fedler]

It all depends on how TBA vs TBD turns out. There are some really fun fights here, just no PPV-quality headliner yet. There doesn’t seem to be many options, but I will reserve judgment until the main event is official.

Maybe but Yair vs Zabit is one of the most exciting matchups of the year.

Let's just hope that the fight is more Perry / Felder and less Woderboy / Till.

It needs a main event still.

Woodley, Ortega, or Cyborg.

I live in the area and radio ads are saying In the main event Nicco defends against Val. Also says Yair vs. Zabit is co main

 

[Kryptt]

Top 3 look good to me but needs something to really cap it off.

 

[markys00]

i know the talks are about ww title..

but how long is max out for? max vs ortega would fit well here.

i also wouldnt mind nunes vs cyborg, but that MIGHT be saved for 230..

 

[Mangar]

Pretty damn weak

 

[Captain Tight]

Cards is in shambles. So far it's featuring two irrelevant chick fights and the best fight on the card is between two unranked exciting prospects.

Considering the fact that I don't see the UFC pulling a decent main event out of their ass, one can assume this is the worst sale of all time.

I encourage none of you to purchase this rip off of a ppv that's quite frankly not even better than most fight night cards.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Thinking with a card like this... could land some sweet tickets. Don't know what it is... but shit on paper turns into a decent watch.

 

[ALAN PARTRIDGE]

Almost like I made this thread the other day....

'Women's Straw Weight'
'Women's Fly Weight'

It's hard to figure out; which phrase will be responsible for selling the highest percentage of Pay Per View buys for this event.

I'll go with:
'Women's Straw Weight' 1.5 million buys
Women's Fly Weight' 1.2 million buys

 

[Alpha_T83]

UFC 228 needs to be scrapped. I'm not sure how many tickets it has sold -- but I believe I'd be asking for my money back if this ends up being the card.

Often times people will buy tickets in advance -- expecting a main event to be added. The UFC has clearly been trying to get a main event (Woodley/Covington, Cyborg/Nunes, and Ortega vs Edgar are rumored attempts), so it is fair to say they have failed the fans.

If they can't fill a main event they need to do the right thing and cancel the card.

 

[podsox]

I’d go with ever

UFC 227 is a close second..
