His eliteXC fight in Newark left alot of empty seats as well. I think he is better well known against young folk who watch free stuff on the computer but who don't have much $$$

The UFC was also stupid as fuck about the marketing and announced the fight like a week before it went down, also obviously slowing sales down.

Guess they had to milk that "will slice fight again" mantra for all it was worth.

Maybe it's because overall the card looked completley unappealing even with the circus.
