Im pretty shocked Mayhem isnt atleast on the Spike telecast. I also thought even Bowles might have been considering his ranking in his division.
I would take the Soti fight off in favor of either of those ones

This card is so ridiculous that the 4 untelevised fights could easily be the televised main card on a Fight Night or UFConVS card.

Nothing's set in stone yet, the 2 fights rumored for the telecast are only rumors. I dont think the UFC is foolish enough to leave him on an untelevised prelim.

why in the hell cant they just get a 3 hour spike deal and have the entire prelim card on there for every event, I think every single fan would love this.
hmmm how can we make our sport bigger? *light bulb turns on* ohhh I know instead of only having two prelim fights on tv we'll televise all of them!
WHAT A FAWKING CONCEPT

Spike wants fights that draw, some of these undercard cats have never been heard of, when you have mostly unfamiliar faces you can't really expect to be pulling the 1.5M or so viewers they hope to get. It seems like the relationship between the 2 is getting more distant also.
