UFC 80 Video Preview

They talk about two fights -- Penn vs Stevenson and Gonzaga vs Werdum. A rough guestimate of screen time would have it 45% BJ Penn, 30% Joe Stevenson, 20% Gabriel Gonazaga and maybe 5% Fabricio Werdum. They are really setting themselves up here by mis-marketing Werdum, or rather, not marketing him at all. He's perfectly capable of beating Gonzaga and there we go, another unknown, unheralded fighter very close to being the #1 contender for the belt.

Re: UFC 80 Video Preview
They put Werdum on PPV and matched him up against a star, Arlovski. It's his fault he sucked. If he'd won decisively, you could be sure he'd have gotten a higher percentage of air time...
