Hold the f**k on
This is not the same trash that I’m used to from the UFC. Has the UFC finally made a Promo that I like? Where’s the “Only on Pay Per Viewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww” guy? Nicely done I must say.

AC/DC is classic, son. CLASSIC.
Light years better than the usual Rock-Rap nonsense that Dana White loves so much.

Indeed. Too bad they couldn't find a main event
still, all those fights are sick.
For some reason, I’m interested in Junior Dos Santos vs. Gilbert Yvel. Maybe its because’s Yvel’s reputation as an insane person.
WOW, they dress up a turd with fancy lights and music and everyone falls for it. The machine is in effect. Doesnt matter though this will bomb and get very low PPV buys.
Dude
No one said they were ordering it based on seeing the video. They said they liked the promo and a couple of the fights. And I’d bet if you’d ask, they’d tell you they like the fights exactly as much now as they did before seeing the video.
I am not a UFC/Zuffa basher by any means but come on if Strikeforce put on a card like this everyone would say how crappy it is. This card is packed with fighters that couldnt cut it in “lesser” organizations. Ludwig? Are you kidding me this guy was fighting Strikeforce Prelims a few months back. Yvel? Was getting slaughtered by Barnett in Affliction. Stout? YAWN!!!!! Daley just lost in MFC. Rashad got Ko’d in his last fight and Thiago is one firght removed from getting dominated. And dont get me started about the IFL undercard.
Daley just lost in MFC.
No, I believe Daley “just” knocked out three consecutive opponents.
Any new conspiracy theories about Dana trying to brainwash the masses with his fancy new promos?
Also
This card is packed with fighters that couldnt cut it in "lesser" organizations.
Who exactly are these fighters? Ludwig? He just won in a lesser organization, and before being submitted by Beerbohm (who is a legitimate LW prospect), he knocked off two UFC veterans in Yves Edwards and Sam Morgan.
Packed…really? Who else? Yvel…he just knocked out Pedro Rizzo. Stout? The best you have is “yawn”? What happened to "not cutting it in lesser organizations? Now you’re changing your criteria to boring fights? You can’t seem to keep your faulty arguments straight. Do tell which other fighters couldn’t hack it in lesser organizations in their last fights…or is it that they’re boring…or that they smell bad…or that they fight for the UFC?

Awesome promo video.
Did anyone else notice that when they were listing the fighters, they tried to pass off Rashad’s head kick KO as one of Yvel’s??
Sorry, he Jason Bourned me.
i saw that too!
Between Yvel and McLovin they throw in the Rashad KO. I guess they thought they could trick someone. It kinda stands out when all of Gilbert’s highlights are in a ring though. Ha.
ill stop replying to myself one day...
Dos Santos belongs there, Rashad does not. Man i wish i could edit posts to avoid looking like an idiot.
I'm just gonna come out and admit it
I’m probably buying this card.
I know, I know. Cursed by gypsies. 50% chance my TV explodes and kills me while I’m watching. But after being inundated in ugly sweaters and fruitcake a week prior I will be all about wasting a couple bucks on something I might actually sort of want.
They’re not star-powered matchups, but I’m too curious about how they go not to tune in. I actually prefer this main event to Tito / Forrest 2. Thiago OR Rashad could soundly beat either of those fighters IMO, despite their lesser-known names.

It’s all JDS’s fault lol

If they’re good enough for Fedor, they should be good enough for you, mortal. :-P

Honestly, this card is a hardcore fans dream.
The card might not have the star power normally associated with the UFC, but every one one of those fights looks like a barn burner. Styles make fights, and there are a ton of interesting style matchups on the card.
If you are a star fucker, then this card is probably not for you, but if you like watching crazy fights then this card should deliver.
I’m definitely in agreement with the commenters upthread. Why didn’t BE report that Zuffa had hired a new marketing team, only this time competent?

Lol
Am I the only one who noticed they showed Evans KO during the Dos Santos/Yvel portion of the trailer?
