                    <p>There was a time when there was too little information of interest about MMA and related sports. In the late 90s, fans would sit on a single page and hit refresh feverishly for hours to get unformation on for example the ADCCs.</p>

Now there is too much. A fan could spend all day listening to radio shows alone.

Towards the goal of making news both more comprehensive and more convenient, fhe UG News will be offering a single page with all the relevant happenings for the upcoming UFC 140 PPV. Some stories, like every single undercard fight signing, or what date the tickets go on sale, are not worthy of separate stories, but will be added here as they break.

VASTLY better poster than usual. Kind of old school. Classy and stylish, but simple and clear.

is rogerio's nickname still minotoro whereas rodrigo's is minotauro? i'm sure that's what it used to be in the old days.

lol, ug news is so thoughtful! nobody has considered creating these types of threads on a forum before. i applaud you...

it's a good card but what do you think will happen in bocek -vs- lentz? will it be one of those crazy, exciting fights or a sumo contest against the cage?

 That is a pretty bad ass card

Even being in Toronto I can't get enthusiastic about this card for some reason.

- JBJ/Machida was a match created because the UFC needed a main event and Lyoto hasn't really earned a title shot.

- Mir/Big Nog, why is this even happening? First fight Mir was a clear winner, no grudge between them, no title shot up for grabs, nothing to get excited about here really.

- Tito/Little Nog. Could be interesting if Tito tries to exchange, otherwise meh.

Love Patrick but Ebersole is big, big test while Hominick should handle Jung. Both should be good fights but otherwise staying home for this one.

 Yep still Minotoro as far as I know and in the case of Bocek Lentz.... I'm going with option B.

 Weird to see Big Nog expected to lose, and Little Nog to win.

One thing that sucks about this FOX deal is Comcast in my area does not offer FUEL tv or ION I don't think....

bummer

The New Tito is going to tear Lil Nog a new one.

Why I'm rooting for him I have no idea.

Do you really believe we have a 'new' Tito on our hands? He caught Bader in a choke very early, so we weren't able to see anything there. And Rashad absolutely dominated him after a long layoff.
