<p><em>"We've gotten more credibility now because we're on FOX with all these big sports leagues. The fact these guys are reaching out to these other sponsors and they've had a great response is big not only for us, but for the fighters, too. This will trickle down to everybody. It's a big deal and yes, it's been great and it's only going to get better."</em><br />
-UFC president Dana White
Tickets have yet to go on sale for the UFC's maiden voyage on broadcast television, but the promotion can already boast a sellout in perhaps its most important indicator: television ad sales.
Just one month after the UFC and FOX announced its seven-year deal will begin with a Nov. 12 event at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California, the network has already sold out all of its existing commercial slots for the show.
The quick sellout is a positive sign that blue-chip, corporate sponsors are willing to test the waters.
"The pressure is on us to deliver," White said. "Meaning [it's on] us and FOX to put out an event that night like you've never seen when it comes to combat sports. [Velasquez and dos Santos] are going to do what they always do. They've been delivering for 10 years, and that's why we're sitting up here today."

I don't follow.
What was misleading about the headline?
Alternatively, where was this posted previously? 30% of the news that is put up is linked to existing threads, and does not generate a new thread. If something was posted previously, it was just missed is all.
