who’s forest fighting?

im still trying to figure out why northern ireland?

i would never buy this paperview

no title on the line this sucks no wander its free

Big names, free fights, what’s not to like?

Many of the European fights will probably look like this. No title fights but solid names to headline the event. Of course they wouldn’t make it ppv in the states, however it will eventually be on HBO.

They need to throw another major fight in the mix. These are very one sided and there are no title fights. Franklin is going destroy Kampmann. I can’t believe they think this guy’s ready to take on ACE

B-ing that Franklin is fighting, Tim S. will probably be thrown into the mix!!!

i like the european shows as long as their free

I dont think Kampman is ready for Franklin either,but Franklin has to fight,he can’t afford to have a long layoff if he wants to face Sylva again

Anybody know who Forrest is fighting?

They should of thrown Bisping at Forrest

Not an exceptional card, I doubt this is it, I bet they will through one more major fight in there, they’ve got to, there virtually nothing but Franklin there. I dont get why Forrest is such a big deal, never a real contender yet, I don’t not like him, but he cant pass as a decent sub main event in my opinion.

Dose anyone know if UFC are doing a show in Scotland?

I’m not impressed by the next few ufc’s to be quite frank. They provide one or two good fights and thats it. With the Pride aquisition i hope we see some card changes soon with some real big fights!

I agree the last couple of fightnights is going to be better than this.

Ireland…will they really make any money over there? I’m staying home to watch it on…PPV….no, free tv right? on SPIKE? the best seats in the house.

Has anyone been to a UFC event? Post to let me know how the viewing is at the arena. Can you see above everyone else if you are not front row? and what about the camera crew, do they get in the way? seems to me TV is the best way to go…and then you don’t have to worry about any drunks.

It depends on he venue its showing at. The staples center in L.A kinda sucks, but its always fun just for the experience.

im liking it….they arent done yet obviously guys, big nog might be on the card…dieog and st. pierre are itching to get back in there…hell even shogun might be on the card…im sold on it being its free and franlkin and forrest are both on it…EXCEPTiONAL….forrest is a big deal becuase people like him, his personality and the way he fights…have you seen a boring forrest fight?

I have lived in northern Ireland before and travel there several times a year and I can not see how an organisation like the UFC can hold an event there,dublin yes i could see that because dublin is a very modern city with some great venues they could use.Belfast NO,what, are they going to hold this in a bingo hall or what.I wouldnt expect to see any big name fights when the venue is in northern Ireland the place is an absolute dive.Im sure there is some half decent venues in Scotland in Glasgow and Edinborough not that I know of any,but I cant believe there holding an event in Belfast.They dont have to do it just to be fair to the Irish and give them an event.I am Irish and I think its a bad bad bad idea.Hold the events in england where there is world class venues worthy of any UFC event.

The only place that could hold the show is the Odyssey Arena. It holds 10,000 but there is no way this one will sell out in such a small city with little exposure to MMA. This is a very bad idea that needs to be switched to Dublin. I would love to see the show live in Belfast, but would rather not give the press the chance to savage the UFC.

YUP

Dana must have a big fight in the planning. The only positive to holding this event is that it isn’t PPV in the US, therefore allowing Dana to showcase one of his poster boys on mainstream TV and shove Bob Arum’s words down his throat where they belong.

Well its different now, come over and watch the event and be impressed!

Rich will win easily, wats forrests position in the rankings? Give Jardine Tito.

I will go over and watch if they get some better fights on the card.Im waiting for the next one to come to London and me and me bro are ganna go,hopefully that will be Chuck Liddell vs Mirko Crocop for the heavyweight belt.I would give up the next five years going out to be there and watch that in a good seat.I envy Joe Rogan and them for the seats they get,and they get payed for it!!!lucky bastards!!!!!!!!!
