Default 12 Fights on UFN 13
Quote:
The Ultimate Fighting Championship on April 2 is scheduled to make a return to its roots when UFC Fight Night 13 takes place in Broomfield, Colo. And it appears that they’re looking to return in a big way.

Most of the UFC’s fight cards of late have been expanded to 10 bouts. The Colorado card is one such card, with 10 fights already officially announced by the promotion. But MMAWeekly sources close to both camps on Wednesday confirmed that Kurt Pellegrino and Nate Diaz have signed to fight on the event, boosting the card to 11 bouts.

Not only that, but Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer on Wednesday also reported that UFC officials have confirmed a bout between Manny Gamburyan and Jeff Cox for the April 2, making it a 12-bout fight card.

Part of the event will air live on Spike TV, which is expected to announce an expanded telecast of three hours. Fight Night 13 will serve as the lead-in to season seven of the popular reality series The Ultimate Fighter.

-Kenny Florian vs. Joe Lauzon
-Karo Parisyan vs. Thiago Alves
-Matt Hamill vs. Tim Boetsch
-Houston Alexander vs. James Irvin
-Frankie Edgar vs. Gray Maynard
-Kurt Pellegrino vs. Nate Diaz
-Marcus Aurelio vs. Spencer Fisher
-Din Thomas vs. Josh Neer
-Clay Guida vs. Samy Schiavo
-Tommy Speer vs. Anthony Johnson
-George Sotiropoulos vs. Roman Mitichyan
-Manny Gamburyan vs. Jeff Cox
- UFC FIGHT NIGHT 13 TO FEATURE 12 BOUTS? - MMA WEEKLY - Mixed Martial Arts & UFC News, Photos, Rankings & more

damn. I'm not too sure this is possible anymore. I guess they're shooting for card of the year.

That's not going to happen due to the large number of ads they have for their up and coming cards....

It's good business. They are putting on an amazing card and hopefully expanding it to 3 hours because it's the lead in for TUF. With TUF ratings slumping they're hoping this is the boost it needs. I know I can't wait!

Fiveounces was reporting this fight night would indeed be 3 hours. The card is stacked however the things that are shaping up now, it seems like more and more fights that are of tv worthy time, that for lack of time, can't be shown on tv.

Maybe it this show is a big success than 3 hour long fight nights with become the norm.

You know after every fight Mike Goldberg comes on and says "Coming up next month we head to for UFC which features a bout between fighter 1 and fighter 2.

I am just guestimating here, but I am willing to bet that the upcoming cards took up at least 15 minutes of the last PPV broadcast if not more. I know they did it at least 4 times to remind us that they are coming to Ohio, Colorado, and then the upcoming season of TUF.

I still really wish Huerta was on this card though...


Oh well.


I bet Manny calls Nate out again. Maybe Nate will get pissed and storm the ring. You know how crazy the Diaz brothers are.
