If FEDOR is not featured on the CBS show I would be SHOCKED. I think if CARANO vs CYBORG was on CBS it would have beaten the SPIKE UFC 100 replay ratings.

Representatives from CBS were in attendance for this event. They must have been happy with what they saw, and happy with the ratings here. It is certainly an upgrade from the Kimbo Slice show they were broadcasting on CBS last year. I would guess a CBS event is in the not too distant future.
