They even brought in old school UFC commentators. Just horrible.

Anyone got a picture of the "pit"?

First, the announcer, are they frickin' serious????? I honestly had to change the channel each time he was on. "He's pacing like he hasn't eaten in a week". WTF?!? It sounded like he had just swallowed a package of razor blades, they were joking having him on there, right?

The cage is absolutely retarded. You don't want clinching against the fence? How about just pushing your opponent back until he trips on the elevated part? That happened several times last night. Also, it looked so awkward for the guy on the bottom to do anything at all being at that weird slope.

The commentators were garbage, the fights were pitifully boring (LnP ftl), the production looked like a 12th grade class project, the cage is just a bad, bad idea, and my God that announcer was horrendous. I feel violated for even watching as much of the show as I did. I can't get over how bad it was.

It was a joke, right?

Hahaha! Dish Network does massive replays, so I thought I would see how the event was and just catch a re-broadcast if it was decent. Glad I didn't order it.

I've gotta agree with the majority here.
That was just sad.

I've recently re-watched some older UFC events and needed to turn the sound off and this event reminded me why.
Meyrowitz is clueless if you ask me. YAMMA? Tournament? These fighters? The pit?
All in all a depressing event. Especially looking at guys like Ricco and Kerr.

How was scotty on the commentor side? The guys on sherdog seemed to think very low of him, but they also seemed to have never heard him before. Any one on here watch the ppv and actually listen to scotty on howard 101? If so what did you all think of him. I think he is funny as hell but I didn't see the ppv. Did his style translate?

If Mark is going to make a sincere run at a comeback he needs to get into fighting shape. He looked very sluggish. I was surprised that his first shoot actually landed a takedown for him. Still, even though he was way out of shape Mark was taking it to Oleg. To me, it looked like he lost his balance, while he was trying to come more into full mount, and got caught. Others have said he was going for the rear naked...I don't know. I'm pretty bummed about it anyways.
