It is a double standard, but the clear difference between the two tattoos is simple.Cain is celebrating his herritage and has no malice towards other races, the Polish guy is celebrating a political party who advacated racism and prejudice. I dont like Cain's tattoo but I can forget he has it because there is no malice or ill will behind it, the Polish guy and on the other hand looks to be the opposite.

Cracking, coming from the poster who simply must reply to everything with nothing of value, ever.

Don't be silly now, I've added plenty of value to this forum. Considering we've seen such superb discussions as Big Daddy V's best look, recording pay "par" views on sky, and a thread discussing Melina's inability to run an ebay account I think you're letting your petty dislike of me cloud your judgement.Check after-hours virgin man, I started the general politics thread, the religion thread, the Scottish independence thread, the Capitalism vs Socialism thread, all of which got decent responses and made for some interesting debate. Oh, and I do a rather tidy job with my MMA threads as well. You may not agree with what I say, but to say I post nothing of value ever is almost as ridiculous as your writing career.Get a grip.

Definately. The Finnish guys tattoos are certainly more offensive, and I certainly wouldn't want him living next door to me, but Velasquez tattoos are offensive to some as well.

UFC on Fox 2 and UFC on FX 1 will be shown on ESPN.

This is cracking news. Primetime feels like it has too many advert breaks, even though it will be the same as the US version and the same as the ESPN version, the breaks just don't feel right.

Id never even noticed what Cain's tattoos said until you all brought it up. So are ESPN renewing their deal with the UFC later this year as me continuing to suscribe to SKY depends on it. If they are, im switching to BT Vision.

2012 has quite a few potential big time fights that could do big business on FOX or PPVIn addition to Jones vs Rashad, they may have Sonnen vs Silva 2 and GSP vs Diaz on their hands if results go the right way.JDS vs Overeem would be perfect for FOX also.

I'd hold off on putting the heavyweights on FOX for a while, both due to the way Cain vs. JDS went and also, the UFC should showcase as many different divisions as possible in that high profile spot. I know historically, the heavyweights do good numbers in boxing etc. but no one was happy with 64 seconds of fight time. I'd feature the LW and WW divisions on UFC on Fox 3. If BJ Penn chooses to return, I think he'd make a perfect FOX headliner in either division.
