The UFC will never be the same without Big man John Mccarthy.

Good luck and Keep getting it on!

[quote post=”4144″]So what is the Fight Network?? Some direct tv channel, that has non stop MMA action?? I’m getting a boner just thinking about it. [/quote]

LOL. Nice. Funny. The Fight Network isn’t as awesome as you may think though. They have a lot of TNA Impact and WWE and even low budget oriental WWE type stuff. Plenty of KOTC and Cage Rage though. I would say it’s worth watching about % of the time from what I remember. (unless you like fake wrestling and stuff.) [/quote]

I agree, hopefully big john can do something about all this fake wrestling crap on the fight network. (yeah right) Though did anyone see that k-1 grand prix saturday night? WOW!! Why bitch about boring lay and pray guys when you can watch pure kick boxing action! If anyone else has the fight network and missed that card, check out a rerun!!

Man, he will be missed in the octagon for sure. The only ref that you don’t have to worry about making mistakes in the cage. Seeing him in there always brought peace of mind for me. Best of luck!

I remember watching John McCarthy in UFC 2 and he didn’t know what the ‘hell’ was going on…but eventually he finally became in my opinion the best and most recognizable MMA referee in the industy.

why not retire right after the UFC79 instead? it could be better to end his career,right the end of the 2007..

HOw do i get the Fight Network here in the NYC area
I have direct tv and i went to fight network ’s website and they provide a generic letter with a space to add ur own comments liek direct tv would make a bunch more money if they will put on fight network for an additional monthly subscription like shotime or HBO

so everyne do it and dtv will change

I live in the bx and the only way years ago about 3 i think was for me in my area of the boogie down was to get Direct tv to watch ppv’s of the ufc
so readers what can i do or we do to get the fight network????
IT SOUNDS great
