might be a hooters night for me. I usually buy them all. But I might go somewhere else for this one. Think the top 2 fights will be decent but I just havnt been able to watch enough TUF:Brazil to know the rest.
I'll buy it but I can understand peeps who aren't hardcores sitting this one out. It costs less in NZ than for US viewers too, only $30, and I have a good job so I can afford it.
For me it's worth it just to see how Werdum goes against Russow. It's potentially the most boring fight of the night if Russow is able to do his thing but it's also potentially the most fun because Werdum's muay thai in his last couple of outings has been beautiful to watch and even if/when Russow gets it to the deck Werdum could be wildly entertaining.
Then you have the TUF:Brasil guys, who have showed so much pure passion that even if they don't look like future champions the narratives on that show are as good as TUF has ever been. And as an old Pride guy I can't not buy a Wandy card. He may not be in any title mix ever again but he's still far and away one of the most entertaining guys around both inside and outside the cage.
Normally I just go to a bar, unless I get someone to pay for it for me as a gift. But I have something else going on that night, so I'm missing this one. But I don't even feel bad about missing it, because the card feels similar to an Fight Night..... Wandy v Franklin is a decent fight, but it's more of a co-main status fight.... And Werdum v Russow is just ok, not big on either of them. Dias v Alcantara would be fun to watch too..... But to have the Ultimate Fighter finals as the other two fights on the main card.....? Not worth it, in my opinion.
I don't think I'll be buying it, but it's not really due to the cards quality.
I just made previous arrangements that can't be unmade. I'm still deciding on whether or not I want to buy it and watch it the day after though, so I'm not sure.
The only people buying this fight are the immediate family members of the people fighting on the card.
Normally I would s.t.r.e.a.m this kind of PPV, but they just opened a Buffalo Wild Wings in my town, so me and a couple of friends are gonna go there and watch it.

If you find your way to Sasskatchewan your welcome to join my chick and I at the bar for this one.
It doesnt happen often, but i am choosing some other things to purchase over this PPV. However i wont miss it
Plain and simple, this card SUCKS.
The main event is completely irrelevant.
The Werdum/Russow fight has some intrigue, but not enough to get me to spend $50 on.

Sucks because most fighters aren't famous?

I unfortunately have not yet seen the TUF Brazil, so i don't know any of the guys, but did read the weekly articles and seems to me like there will be some great fights on saturday. I guess there is something to paying that much money to watch guys your not invested in as a fan, but i agree a fan of mma will probably get his/her moneys worth

All the TUF Brazil episodes (13) are online and available for viewing.
Normally I go to BWW to watch them (haven't ordered one in 3 years) but they are showing this one on base for free
so that's my plan now.
I hate that BWW gets so packed.
Everytime I go there its ridiculous and to make it worse, its a bunch of people who don't kno s--- about MMA :x
Fights deliver no matter the names.
I think the free card the night before will be better and offer more intrigue but yeah I'll be getting this one. Names don't make great fights.
