From Ariel Helwani:

I'm told it was NBCSN, not WSOF, who pushed to move WSOF 15 to Nov. 15, which already features Cain vs. Werdum (UFC) & Tito vs Bonnar (BMMA)

Well sounds like it wasn't up to them. Really shitty for them though, those are two pretty good MMA events and WSOF has been getting a little weaker lately.
 
Only way this can be slightly good is if it's on in the afternoon and serves as a lead-in. A shame Okami is now matinee for Bellator and the UFC.
 
it was already fucked going up against Bellator 130. Now i can't even DVR it
 
As if ufc and bellator being on the same night wasn't bad enough, my dvr can only handle so much!
 
Stupid stupid stupid. I love watching WSOF when there's no UFC, or even over some fight nights as long as I switch back for the main event. Going against Werdum and Cain? 0 viewers.
 
Dont understand either of these moves.

Bellator is taking two weeks off like they wanted to push Tito/Bonnar to the same day to counter the UFC. if they ran straight through they would have had Tito/Bonnar on Nov 1st with no UFC on that day but they didnt.

Now WSOF is putting on a card the same day? Its like they dont want anyone to care about their show.
 
Too much MMA on one night. Yeah, I actually typed that sentence. I'll have to tape two and watch the ufc live. What a pain. It's a pain because I'll have to avoid all mma and sports sites for the weekend so I don't run into any spoilers.
 
Now WSOF is saying they are doing PPV in 2015.
 
Jessica Aguilar is on the card, she said she'll fight Nov.15
 
Feels like WSOF wants to die. NBCSN clearly doesn't give a fuck about them.

Bellator makes a stupid choice to go against the UFC PPV as well.

Who is running these promotions? My God. I mean neither is going to get a lick of Media cause of UFC's Mexico debut.

Just so stupid.

Bellator will do fine cause of Tito/Bonnar and they have a network people watch so they will get alot of casual fans to watch.

WSOF will get none.

Yeah the Bellator event shouldn't get hurt much but had they gone on there own day? They could have done good numbers. Up against UFC who will take away the Media and time for Tito/Bonnar to hype. Their biggest show of the year becomes just another show ratings wise.

But yeah there were already few people watching WSOF split that between Bellator and UFC you get like twenty people who fell asleep during the lead in softball game.
 
Children! Don't do What wsof has done. They couldn't walk... When they tried to run
 
Hopefully the WSOF card is on in the early afternoon again
 
Good thing I just upgraded my DVR.

Prelims are gonna be a problem though.
