UFC 82 Ad
I was just watching Spike Tv and I saw a promo ad for UFC 82 and it was showing the highlights of the fighters and showed Keith Jardine and said he was fighting at UFC 82. I just thought that was funny and a pretty big screw up.

You beat me to it!
I was just going to ask that question myself. I hadn't heard any rumors yet about this.

Question???
Ok, was I drunk last night during the WEC. When the commercial for UFC 82 came up didn't they say that Jardine was in it? I don't see Jardine on the card??

It's Anderson Silva vs Dan Henderson vs Keith Jardine in a classic Texas Tornado match.

I haven't seen the ad, but someone mentioned in another thread that it aired again during the WEC event. Now, I work in corporate video (marketing, etc.) and this is way beyond a minor mistake.
People in my industry lose their jobs over spelling mistakes or incorrect video levels, so this continued error seems unbelievable to me... 
Either someone f*cked up and hasn't corrected the problem orJardine is fighting at 82 and this is some Cloverfield-type viral marketing.
edit: Or they're using UFC 82 as the platform to announce Jardine vs. Wanderlei Silva. |

The ad that I saw last night made no mention of Jardine...so I'm guessing it was a major F-up by someone.  |
