I think for 40 bucks you should get to see EVERY fight on the card. I also think that if you order the event you should get old UFC fights involving the fighters on the card and it would run all day. That would be awesome. I hate spending 40 bucks for 5 fights. I wish they'd have something on there all day to hype it up and then show the live fights at 6:30.

You feel me?

PPV's are on 3 hour blocks right now, PRIDE & UFC. We get UFC live in the states, so that's the price we pay instead of seeing them all prerecorded (PRIDE).

I personally like seeing them live more. Yes it would be great to see more fights, they always do if time allows.

Hype=Unleashed, All Access, UFC Countdown

Anymore they want you to buy there DVD's. It's bad business to give everything for free.

Also the UFC fights you don't see are viewable for $$$ at UFC.com

I think that if you fork over 40 bucks, you should get more than 5 fights. To me, 40 bucks is a lot...I don't know about everyone else. I just think that just 3 hours of fights is not enough. They should show fights from previous events involving the guys fighting on the card(for instance, Chuck, Tito, Arlovski, Leben...etc.). It's not just to hipe it up, but those 10 second clips of those fighters previous fights don't tell you how this guy fights...

The UFC fan-base is growing. I think the UFC should show fights from 10 AM til the event at 6:30.

I don't know about showing the library of past fights a guy has had. but i'm all for a 4 hour ppv which gives us more of the undercard.

[Tystick357]

Some people forget they also give us free events. So with UFN you get 4 live fights right there, and 4 is usually the most you can miss for preliminaries.

I think showing the entire undercard isn't a bad idea, but the all-day thing will never happen... UFC just starting running commercials for their ondemand service on their website, making it very clear that they are only interested in making more money off of their previous events... I'm not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, (for them) I just don't see them forking over any more than they have to for the $40 ppv...

[mrpink4147]

4 hour pay per views is a good way to show...you can start to hype the lesser known names instead of the maybe you see them maybe you wont depending on what happens on the rest of the card...it would have been a shame if they didnt get to show the thiago alves fight

[Tystick357]

Also I know some people don't have friends that are into the sport, but that can easily cut the cost for you.

7 other people to split the price=$5 each
4 others=$8

Etc.

Personally, I'm not going to sit infront of the TV for longer than 3 hours to watch any fight card. I"m sure I'm not the only one that thinks that way.

[Tystick357]

Most diehard fans would disagree with you, I believe PRIDE Shockwave live (on stream) was about four hours.

So more than you think like MMA enough to watch it for over 3 hours.
