    Which ones are your “8” quality events? I know one of them is Yamma 2, but what are the others?

    This might be one of the best promos I’ve seen for an MMA event. If only Zuffa would get whoever did this to do UFC promos. I’m getting sick of UFC recycling the same promos over and over for years

    I can’t wait for this fight and I can’t believe it’s going to be on free tv.

    Amazing production. Is Versus responsible for those (rather than Zuff)? That is what the UFC pay-per-view event promos should look like, rather than the standard pay-per-view commercials.
