With this card set, it makes 7 PPVs in a row with a UFC belt on the line!!!

I would say this is a pretty awesome second half of the year :)

Did you notice that means only 13 PPVs this year. 14 last year and 16 in 2011.

@mule

Very interesting!  I wonder if the UFC is trying to phase out the PPVs to just once a month?  That'd make a hell of a lot more sense than the two a month they were doing a couple years ago.  

It'd be even better if they phased out the PPVs altogether, but that likely ain't happening for a while at the very least.

Well, with moving to FOX, you could substitute PPV's as FOX cards. Four FOX cards, four less PPV'S. I prefer it like this, so people are getting hopefully good fights with less buys and the UFC can start to stack PPV's with great cards for bigger buys.

Yeah less PPV's, more fights overall but that's just the Fox deal I guess...

I think if Anderson is willing, they could make Silva vs. Belfort II at this event. Silva said he wants to remain at MW, but who knows with this guy.

Vitor Belfort does not deserve a title fight. He is a cheater, and on top of that he is now trying to pick his own fights. Refuses to fight Mousasi? What the **** gives you the right o refuse to fight anybody?

'He doesn't deserve to fight Vitor Belfort.'  The guy talks in 3rd person now? Those PEDs must be really getting to him. The 34-3 Gegard Mousassi doesn't deserve to fight the 23-10 all powerful back of the head puncher, PED using Vitor Belfort? Yeah..

Was this guy not just calling for a Jon Jones rematch less than a month ago? According to him he can fight anyone he pleases at 205 or 185.

Anderson Silva, and Ronda Rousey on the same card? By far the biggest rematch the the history of the UFC, and another big rematch in the 1st legit female rivalry in MMA history. I might have to go to this card as an early birthday present to myself...

Dude... I am sure no male UFC bantamweight outside of the top 10 would be able to beat her...

But I wouldn't be so sure that she is beating Ronda... She is bigger and will have a clear advantage at 145 because of that, but Rowdy's takedowns are insanely good, she has amazing ground and pound and we have never seen anyone able to defend the armbar once the fight goes to the ground...
