Default Spoilers rule!

Most everyone knows about the spoilers rule for the events. Do not disucss any outcomes of the UFC 74 event in this section untill 24 hours after the event has aired in the states. If you wish to discuss the matches and their outcomes, please go to the UFC Results section.

The reason for this is so that our overseas members, who dont get to see it live, will not have the fights spoiled for them.

The rules concerning bans (temp or permanent) apply and will be enforced.

You're right!

Spoilers do rule!



Edit: What I meant was, well done.
And let me also congratulate the 25 members who will happily ignore the rule this weekend.

It's a nice and considerate rule to have but somewhat unnecessary. I'm from the UK and won't get to see it until Sunday evening and as a result I won't be coming on the forum until after I have seen the fight. I have made that mistake before and won't be doing it again.

It's not that big a deal to miss one night of forum discussion. Saying that I think this is a great forum and will look forward to seeing you all on Sunday after the fight.

Have fun. Hope Randy and GSP come out on top!!

Yes, if I were in your situation I would just avoid the forum until I see it too. Seems the easist thing to do.

Having said that. I can't wait for tonight. Having waited two months we now get two months jammed with UFC.

It is quite simple if you dont want the result spoiled and have not seen the fights live;


Dont come on FightForum!



Hopefully no-one is unfortunate enough to not realise that their experience of the fight might be ruined and then come on here and find out the results. I know lots of people who have done that in the past.



The worst ones will be for UFC 75 in London.

Is it also not quite simple for people to just post in the correct forum for spoilers ?
