| GSP himself said he need to improve his finishes. I agree with it too. I think he didn't want to break Hardy's arm and pussed out at the moment of truth. | |

- They promoted the shit out of it. It was on buses, billboards, radio spots, the primetime special...they knew they had to double down on promotion because GSP was fighting a can(in contrast, i see Hardy as slightly above Marcus Davis) and it looks to have paid off.
I saw Cain Velazquez and nog on a bus does that mean they got the shit promoted out of it????? maybe, but i guess i missed their primetime special.. ...don't be a dick bird, it's not your style. Let me add i'm not denying GSP's drawing power if people thought that, or the fact the HW's were fighting. I was just pointing out that UFC put in extra work to sell the bum he was fighting just in case. | |

| Cain vs Nog also had a prime time special. It wasn't a three part mini-series like GSP vs Hardy was, but there was still an in depth interview and "watch them train" hour special. | |

They do that for every show. They call it a countdown. Not only did 111 have a countdown, but also a prime time. We all know that. | |

| Sounds right. I thought it would do about 700-750. The earlier reports of 850 seemed high. I didn't buy that | |
