Whether it was an intentional move or not, it's funny.

It's still 2 weeks out and their very first event. They've already sold more than Elite's network debut and Elite is an "established" organization.

I thought Vegas was Danas Town. lol Remember him saying that to JT on TUF when he canned him. Watch out for Dana driving around Vegas with some wire cutters. Affliction FTW

yeah that was a dana moment that made me want to hurl. Dana is a peon in Vegas.

I think it's great the affliction did this, but who's going to pay for UFC tickets then go sit and watch affliction on closed circuit AND havce to pay twenty bucks for it?

Maybe I'm missing something but it doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

yea I doubt this was done on purpose to try to steal viewers from the UFC.

Ive never been to a live event but from what I understand, most everyone buys their tickets in advance, so anyone thats going to be there will already have tickets and I doubt they are just going to throw their money away and decide to go watch the affliction event on a tv

In some respects it may be smart to position yourself as a competitor to the UFC, but in other respects I think it is detrimental. The UFC has busted their ass to get where they are, why shit on that and make an instant enemy? If you do that and don't succeed you look like a total dick, IMO.
