i think adams does a better job than silva in matchmaking, but thats just my opinion, i mean take the latest rumor of liddell vs couture #357, not a fight i am tremendously interested in considering all the other fights that could be more interesting

Weird… I mean, unless you’re getting paid really well, I’d almost NOT want to be televised. More tape / PVR material for other fighters to watch. I’m assuming this was probably related to sponsorships, though.

Interesting stipulation in Rosholt’s contract. It certainly was disappointing to have that match televised as opposed to Razor vs. Cowboy. Not that the fight was shitty by any means but Rosholt is just too green atm for my tastes.

Here’s the solution that that problem: Have an event that is longer than 2 televised hours.

For a card that big you need at least 3 hours with all of those commercials and with the programming on VS. no one will miss anything even if they make it 5 hours.

honestly i don’t think this one little screwup is enough for them to be demoted within the org. i feel that with what they have they’ve been doing just as well as UFC with all of the amazing cards they have put together.
