thats very true that would be another big fight saved for the u.s market
man that frustrates me i understand why they save alot of big fights for the u.s market but i do feel us u.k fans are often given a watered down card

I don't think it would be for either of those reasons...MMA is fair game in Illinois starting in June, so a matchup in Chicago would only make sense IMO.

yea, but we are talking overall, the UK doesnt get big matches becuase its harder to sell PPV when its Tape Delay(one of the reasons), The biggest main event the UK has had was rampage vs Hendo, but if you look at the rest they were pretty weak-> Franklin/Okami, Cro Cop/Gonzaga,Bj penn/Stevenson.

nothing is gonna save it, the ufc is already losing money overseas it's a matter of time till the ufc will only go there once a year.. why lose money if fans across the sea won't pay to see it,

So you would want to see GSP maul Hughes for the third strate time; no thanks.

well serra v hughes would be good exept he will probably try to fake another injury to get out of it.
