The card is weak overall, but the potential in endless when you think about the background that the fights are based on. The main event has two very hungry and talented guys working there way to the belt. Rich working back, and Okami dangerously threatening the division by taking out all the young talent that TUF was bulding up. I can see either one o these guys being Champ. The Forrest/Ramirez fight could be a banger. Oh! and Guida/Griffen WoW. Really looking forward to that 155 bout, but still a hard sell overall. This card is weak just because it's being compared to the cards that surround it. Look at 71,73,74, and it was originally supposed to be free on Spike.

Dana, just change it to a free event if you want some viewers. I mean how could you follow up 71 (in my opinion i thought it was great) up with this card? who ever would pay $40 for this is crazy, save your money for 73.

For them, its a monster. And the top four bouts are all real good, very intriguing. Zuffa let their guard down on this one. Showtime is hyping the shit out of it from what I understand, plus with the lead in from the undercard on cable to the PPV event later on, great idea. Wish the UFC and Spike did that.

No doubt, but that isnt saying much...I think the EliteXC card is ok only if The Legend vs The Bad Ass pans. Ninja is no Shogun, but overall a decent card. I have already decided to skip 72 (unless there is a new fight added) ...maybe I will check this one out. EliteXC will smoke UFC 72, you mean?
