I have part 11 of the series up looking at 2011 Part 10 of the series is up now http://www.mmadraws.com. I figured it made more sense to just add to this thread, rather than start a new one.

New number 1, the debut of Bellator on national TV, UFC's last year on Spike and first year on FOX, Strikeforce loses it's network deal. All that as well as every recorded TV number and PPV buyrate for the year in one easy to find place.

I've got part 12 up now at http://www.mmadraws.com/

UFC buys Strikeforce. Ronda Rousey cracks the top 50 without even debuting in UFC yet. The Spider rises to #1. All that and every recorded TV number and PPV buyrate for the year and much more.
