Countdown to UFC 100 Video

http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=VideoPlayer.home&gid=21005 – Is another way to view it.

I understand the heavy heavy heavy pushing of Lesner/Mir since it has the potential to push the PPV buys into uncharted territory, but i cant help but be bothered by the lack of hype for GSP/Alves. Hendo/Bisbing got more airtime than the WW title bout. GSP/Alves is a perfect #1 vs #2 title fight for UFC 100. Its the UFC’s 2nd most stacked division IMO and features one of the company’s 3 or 4 greatest champions ever vs. his most dangerous threat yet, who happens to have a pretty big hype train behind him. We’ve watched GSP turn itno an MMA star in front of our eyes the past few years, and now he has a chance to turn into a cross-over star. The odds are in the champ’s favor, but they could do a better job of hyping Alves so that if/when GSP wins it will even further add to his legend.

I mean, Bisbing/Hendo arent top 3 in their weight class. Sure they were in our homes once a week this spring, but this matchup just isnt on par in terms of significance with the WW title fight.

Reguardless of the outcome saturday, Brock will be the headline, win or lose. He really doesnt need such a monster media push. GSP is less known, but has a chance to finish off his cleaning out of the WW division at a very young age saturday. IMO, a convincing win over Alves puts GSP in Anderson Silve terriritory….who’s left?
