Related to me, is he?

as a mma fan, i think this is crap. i want to see both. it seems pretty asinine to schedule this big of an ufc event the same night the biggest mma name outside the ufc(fedor) is fighting. seems to me this was dana's way of trying to get back at Affliction/Trump/Fedor for not being able to sign fedor to a ufc contract. dana knows that fedor is one of the few guys outside his org that can steal his thunder and he'll do anything to disrupt it including providing a free show in what he could normally draw millions with in pay-per-view. this is pure spite to discredit a competitor. i understand it may be a decent business move but as a fan this bites!

TiVo is your friend Al_Cheese. Or DVR. Me and my friends (or My friends and I if you want correct grammar) are watching both. First the Affliction event, then the UFC.

yeah i know. actually i think i'm gonna hit up my favorite sports bar and watch fedor pound sylvia and hopefully watch silva smash the sandman's face!

Dana is using Chinese busniess tactics... give your stuff away for free to destroy your competition.

what dana is doing is smart for his bussiness. He has a contract with spike, he is using it to block the competetion, give it away for free and give away good names on the fight card or pay for names. His hopes is many people dont bother looking at the other guy

I don't a problem with it. I will be watching both events this weekend. I don't blame Dana for doign it, but I think it will have very little effect overall on the # of people who buy the Affliction PPV.

Sorry to say, but that's business

Yes it will hurt Affiction, Because everybody doesn't have DVR Yet! and why pay for an OVERRATED FEDOR(WHO'S GOING TO GET HIS **** KICK), when you can watch,Anderson Silva(THE BEST POUND FOR POUND FIGHTER IN THE WORLD) for FREE. NO CONTEST!!

Fedor overrated?
krsmma what's your phone number? Let's get some money on this fight. I'll give you 10 to 1 odds.

There is not one single reason to believe that Fedor is overrated. Not until at least someone can actually defeat him in the ring. He may not have fought in a while but until someone proves otherwise, he's still the badest motorscooter on the planet.

Oh, and Yoda, if you're wanting to put down some money on Fedor and you're willing to put out 10 to 1 odds, check out the Bodog betting line which will get you better odds than that.... Fedor -350 Sylvia +275

Place your bets, place your bets! Should be a great fight card. I'll be recording both.

Overrated Fedor?

Must not be an mma fan

I'm going to do the same thing

Even if I had to pick only 1 it would be affliction, better card.

Anyone thinkg Dana had anything to do with Fedor being thrown out of the Affliction fight???

So tired of seeing the Affliction tshirts. They are getting worse than the stupid Hollister shirts every "Todd Johnson" in the world is wearing!!

Anderson Silva is the UFC Middleweight Champion... GSP is the Welterweight... get it right before you post it

I realize the real odds. I was just trying to call out that fool who said Fedor is overrated.
