After the press conference yesterday Dana said a huge deal was in the works....and based off a ton of rumours it looks like we're going to be seeing UFC on national TV very soon!
This will be awesome

I can see it now. Fights stopped even earlier than they should to stop any unnecessary "violence" attention MMA might receive. This can be a good thing.....but it could also turn bad.

Um it's already on Spike? Spike is national, isn't it?

Um either way the more that can watch it for free the better!!!!!13.176@101.48 Bone Stock 05'STi done on 6/20/2010 import wars #4 hot day, 11:20am.

I think it's a terrible move by UFC if that's the case. All it will do is cause more uproar and negative attention to the sport. They talk about how they don't want to be the WWE, but in order to get ratings they'll have no choice.
