Are they seriously going to have a ppv with two title fights -- BJ and Anderson -- that airs on tape delay? Or will they have the event at 4am or whatever so it can be aired live in the U.S.?
Wow, even if the fight card doesn't consist of a single title fight a tape delayed event would be retarded.
Without a live stream that is, as long as there's still a live stream i couldn't care less; spike or whatever they want, but an event without a live stream would be pretty shit.
I didn't hear anything about them planning it that way, where have you?
I didn't hear anything one way or the other, that's why I'm asking.
Abu Dhabi is 9 hours ahead of EST. To have it air live at 10pm here it would have to happen at 7am over there which obviously doesn't seem plausible. But with the hit ppv buys take for tape-delayed events, that doesn't seem ideal either.

Cool you had me worried there.
Hopefully they'll just do the whole free on spike tv on tape delay deal and live on PPV for those interested.
IrishRottie - I stay up until 5/6 am to watch all the UFC ppvs here in Ireland.
Yeah exactly, i have no issue staying up from 3 am for 8 hours for say dream; staying up for an entertaining card isn't a problem for me.
If they try to make that a PPV it just saves me money. I used to order those but I really don't see the point anymore. I can just wake up and check the internet for who won, and by then I can even watch the fights on youtube or somewhere else.
Needs to air live!
Yeah LIVE because I really want to watch UFC from 4AM-7AM. That'd totally be worth it.
