Rich Frankin vs. Wanderlei Silva
Mike Russow vs. Fabricio Werdum
Daniel Sarafian vs. TBA ("TUF: Brazil" middleweight finals)
Godofredo "Pepey" de Oliveira vs. TBA ("TUF: Brazil" featherweight finals)
Felipe Arantes vs. Milton Vieira
Yuri Alcantara vs. Hacran Dias

So Franklin-Wand and Russow-Werdum followed by TUF Brazil fights? Why the fuck would anyone buy this? Its a shame they can't move it to a free card

Will it even get 100,000 buys?

i'm sure it will get well over 100K buys. Even the darkest of the dark ages of the UFC got over 100K buys.

It's gonna be a bust though...but it's ok...Eleventy Billion people will be watching in Brazil, right Dana?

Will there ever be a UFC ### card that won't be PPV again ?

Subject: Re: UFC 147 Mon Jun 11, 2012 10:01 am

Im definitely not interested in this card.

I'm a Wand and Ace fan, I have bought every PPV for years now. But as of right now, I have no plans to purchase this event.

With the amount of ppvs now there has to be some I skip and this card looks easy to do.

Has anyone fans tweeted Dana to complain about this being PPV ?

I watched the first Episode of TUF Brazil Last night. The fight in episode with 32 fighters. That alone made me wanna buy this PPV. The talent level looks very different compared to the past few years of Vegas TUF. There are some beasts at 185 in this thing and a few a t 145 also.

There's nothing he can do about it. This card was originally supposed to have different fights on it and they can't just move it to cable like they could on Spike. Fox actually has lineups set

I figured that with the Fox deal but I was just curious to hear Dana's response.

They could give you a coupon with a purchase of this event to get 50% off another event. Something like that could work. Not sure if they can actually lower the price or not? Speaking of FOX not being able to squeeze this thing in, they have FOX, FX, FSN and FUEL. You sure they couldn't get it in on any of these? Even if it's just the main card?
