News Patricio Pitbull vs Yair Moved To PRELIMS @ UFC 314

[El Fernas]

Putting one of the best non-UFC champs on the prelims is pretty wild though.

Seems like a Dana move.

When it comes to card placement, if your name/face isnt on the poster, thats probably the best spot to be in, and its a common thing when it comes to PPV's, someone asked Dana White about it and he said it wasnt final.

The main event of the prelims is a good spot.

I feel it's like being on the first line of a farm team for hockey. It's good, but it ain't great.

One day, I hope more Sherdoggers understand the importance of the Featured Prelim slot. Putting one of Bellator's best known names on there is a smart move.

The old disrespeccy!

Sick, now I get to watch the fight as I usually don't watch PPVs

 

[Jinx_AA]

Rather watch Reyes and Krylov - makes sense to me

Yeah as long as they are paid the same I don't think they would care. It's not like a Conor PPV or something

Pitbull is an unknown fighter. The prelims main event is a great spot to introduce him to the masses.

lol... if Pitbull is an unknown to you, ydnsamma.

 

[Oscar Madison]

All current Bellator Champ Defectors should be offered a Featured Prelim slot.

Promoting is a strange beast.

I don't know if you've noticed this, but PPVs often slow down once the main card gets underway. Oftentimes, the prelims are better by design, because it convinces casuals to buy the PPV at the last minute.

Do casuals watch the Prelims?
