Loken it still sucks for us Canadians who want to watch every live event because that's what we're interested in. yea we can DL things but it's not the same by any means, also if Dana wants it to expand why take it out of Canada, we all know GSP is the future of the welterweight division and that his fan base is growing quickly here and i'm only speaking about my area of toronto who knows how big the UFC is in the rest of Toronto and Canada whose jeff rogan?? ahahah joker it’s joe rogan and he’s an intense dude when he calls fights which is cool and there is no one who has a deeper voice than goldberg haha.

Me me me...what about Jeff Rogan and pals?: I will definitely miss Jeff Rogan. I was happy to have him in my living room and missed him when the UFC was on he was not there. Hope these new strangers are as good. They may be but I bet none of them will ever say "WOW!!! Who could watch baseball after that!!!?" Mike I guess I was still sounding like a self centered knob.

Nothing lasts forever. And about Pride: All I ever see on pride is the PPV stuff so I don't watch it with the same interest as UFC; I cannot see that any HBO deal it makes would affect anything in Canada; we will still get the PPV. Mike Just to clarify that I am not a self centered knob:

“So yes, this deal sucks”

Should be

“Yes, this deal sucks for Canadians in the short term; and unless Canadians eventually get 100% access it sucks in the long term too”

Dana White or whoever is a freakin genius for TUF and other Spike broadcasts that are “free”; it helped popularize MMA/UFC and we have had it good. Nothing lasts forever.
