You could look at it two ways, one it pumps you up for the main event, or two Spike is bitter and trying to hurt the ratings.

Not a greatest hits of 2010, not a Brock, Andy, Couture, or GSP special, and not even some old PPV, but NATE MARQUARDT MARATHON... Laughing

They are showing 2 fights that he lost and the 1 bizarre Paul Harris fight. LOL. That is how they feature you on SPIKE? Not exactly a build up.

That's why I'm thinkin it's some bittness, can't ever remember Spike running reaired fights during an event on Versus.

It sounds like negotiations between Spike and Zuffa are shaky.

BE takes a look at the odd fight choices.

Quote :
In the chosen bouts, Marquardt goes 4-2. In those four wins, one was
among the worst modern UFC main events and saw Nate test positive after
the bout and another was one saw a bizarre ending that had his opponent
accusing Nate of greasing.
Was this a purposeful move by Spike to turn fans off to the idea of
tuning in for a Marquardt headlined card? Or is Spike just using the
footage they have available to them to showcase a fighter who fights
that night on a competing network?
