They're doing the smartest and best thing they could be doing: standing out. If you can't stand out by doing something new, you do old things better. IFL had team challenges, M1 brings the extra dose of nationalism. TUF4 is closest what they're doing here: TUF4 promised a title shot, but these guys have Fedor. Why would you want them to sit down quietly and promote a small show? Your sense of business is acting up; you must have a great one since you can afford giving advice on the blog comments section. Not. Gabber: you’re dead wrong. They’re doing the smartest and best thing they could be doing: standing out.

They have people in just about every corner of the world (remember there are other places then lust the USA) Huge potential markets worldwide that dwarf the US, why do you think UFC is "trying" to expand internationally. The problem for them is that Dana is such an idiot, foreign markets or the reps. won't deal with his bad attitude. I think the TV with Fedor is a GREAT idea (US and internationally)! As far as a TUF rip off, c'mon...ever here of TUFF-Enough or maybe The Contender? These shows are not brain surgery as far as concepts, so get off TUF nut huggin (not original in the slightest) As for international show and teams...INTERNATIONAL MARKET. The problem with most of you that say..GREAT IDEA is that you can't get your head out of your ass long enough to realize there is a big world out there. Now go play in traffic:) Are you guys serious?

Now they're pitching idea 2, yeah team based combat. So first, try to copy TUF now try to copy IFL? This organization seems like it lacks direction. It's scattered. I would have alot more respect for them if they just stfu, sign a bunch of fighters, throw a couple good shows and get someone other then a hip-hop circus freak to fight Fedor. They just keep trying to build a brand, made of nothing. They should have just called it Fedor vs the World. :P I want to see good fights and good shows. Not this crap. :P Sign a decent stable of fighters and make people brawl. Make something that is a unique experience for M-1. These dudes have all the opportunity in the world to make things happen as MMA has just taken off! All they can do is look like wads. :P Man,

Repeatedly violating his contract wouldn't look good to a judge or a jury, if it gets that far. That would be unwise while the lawsuit is pending.
