Anyone been watching the UFC PPV repeats on ESPN this month?

 

They're showing UFC 136 tonight at midnight which was one of the best PPVs this year with Edgar vs Maynard 3, Aldo vs Florian and Sonnen vs Stann.

 

Then they've got

 

Sat morning 24th Dec at 12am - UFC 139 (Hendo vs Shogun / Wand vs Cung Le / Faber vs Bowles)

Sun morning 25th Dec at 12am - UFC 132 (Cruz vs Faber 2 / Wand vs Leben / Tito vs Bader)

Weds morning 28th at Dec 12am - UFC 134 (Silva vs Okami / Shogun vs Griffin 2 / Big Nog vs Schaub)

Fri morning 30th Dec at 12am - UFC 117 (Silva vs Sonnen / Fitch vs Alves 2 / Dos Santos vs Nelson)

 

Sky+ these if you missed any of 'em the first time round. Some of the best UFC cards over the last year plus 117 which was one of the best of last year. And Lesnar vs Overeem is live on the 30th aswell obviously.

 

132 is the most underrated UFC show of the year, UFC 132 gets my vote as UFC's best show of 2011 followed by UFC 136 and 139. 129 was another good show but marred by the rubbish main event.

Just reading that Condit has opened up as slight betting favourite which I'm a little suprised at. I'll be having a little money on Diaz.

It sucks for GSP being out, but in all honesty his absence will make the WW division a little more interesting and exciting. I'm really looking forward to this fight.

It will be a good fight, I was suprised just how shit BJ Penn looked in his fight, but then I've never really rated Penn all that much in recent years. Just a shame both Diaz brothers are such cocks, i'm looking forward to seeing Cerrone kick Nate's head in next weekend.

Haha good spot. I never even noticed that somehow.

 

Can't be as bad as this ad for UFC 119 from ESPN though
