ufc rip off
If they have any conscience they should refund all ppv revenues from that last ridiculous event. that shamrock early stoppage after months of hype... when we know hes got a chin... was unforgivable!! Not to say tito wouldnt have prolly won; oh well. BUT THEN to top it off... what the heck was that orlofsky@maniac dance off; MY GOD; it was awful to watch; completely pathetic & yet theyll charge big money! There wasnt 1 good fight the whole night! WOW; do the right thing: refund the money!!!!

I guarantee, that i was just as dissapointed as you, and propably alot of other people. As anyone who has watched Shamrock over the years knows he can take one hell of a beating, but, and i can't say i like this, As much as i believe that the fight was stopped to soon.... Herb Dean didn't make a bad call, had he factered in shamrock's ability to absorb punishment for extended periods of time, the fight would have kept going, but Dean did say before the fight protect yourself at all times, and as we all know, five uncontested elbows to the face in a row, is not intelligently defending yourself.
And about there not being a good fight...... were we watching the same thing.... with the exception of the shamrock, and the Sylvia fight, the others kicked ass.
Especially the first one with the bleeder....

That's what I was just told by a guy from Bali, Indonesia too... That they never pay for boxing or MMA events. This is the farmland/factory for Israel. And someone else on this forum got it right when they called the U.S. West Israel.

West Isreal? WTF are you talking about? Isreal is the size of Rhode Island. The US is a HUGE nation. I fail to see what you are talking about.

I liked it too, but it wasn't one of the better UFC's.

Dana White and his partners got a hold of a good thing when they purchased UFC,, so you would think they would give the viewers new fights instead of reruns on their Ultimate fighter program,, How the heck they get away with doing that is beyond me, I thought the T.V. station that shows there program would demand that they give them something of value, like new fights each time they show the introduction fights before the Ultimate fighter comes on,, Man! they are sure making easy money,, Pride is the venue to watch,, better fighters and more of them, not the same old faces as you see on UFC..

I do not disagree but I did find the Joe Stevenson fight good, also I like the fact we can get to know UFC fighters and actually see the lower ones again and again rather then an endless supply of one timers.

yea i thought the fights before the main events were good but the ones that you were supposed to go see because they were promised to make history were disgraceful, silvia and arlovski should join boxing

You guys are a bunch of whiners. If UFC gave you your money back, would it be ok for them to charge you extra after the PPV for a good set of matches. Should work both ways. Bad events happen. It is the nature of the beast. If you order enough of them, it will even out in the end.
