I told my friends that the ring was gonna bring out the best in Arlovski,because he was gonna be able to trap his opponents in the corners,and it was true....
Affliction for sure have the best Heavyweights in the world now,but they will need LW's WW's and more MW's and LHW's....
If Affliction have Tito,Couture,Fedor,Arlovski,they will give the UFC a run for its money...........Imagine if Affliction and EliteXC merge as 1.. 
I hope Korn plays in the next event...they kinda hinted it during the announcment of celebrities,plus Korn has their own Affliction T-shirts..just hope they play some older songs......playing music was no problem for me since the fights went by so fast just like in Pride
I love the UFC,but the first thing that pops into my mind when i think UFC is "DANA WHITE"...and i hate that f*ck, and want him to fail...I wouldnt mind 1 bit seeing all the UFC greats jump ship to Affliction or EliteXC.....or Dana,Fired.either is good :)
If people like Couture,Fedor,and Tito say they wouldnt work for him,then i believe he really is a dickhead who happened to have 2 rich friends.

1.) I didn't watch it live.
2.) I'm not a fan of the ring but I can tolerate it. I've always preferred the cage, though.
3.) Thanks to MMAPlayground, I did get to see the fights.
4.) I hate the "above-ring" camera angle. It makes it seem as though I'm watching the fight from the nosebleed sections. Give me some action from the apron...it's much more personal that way.
5.) Other than #4...I have no complaints. I just hope they can muster up a decent follow-up card.

I don't get how someone can complain about them having Megadeath play when they showed the entire card... All the fights...
At least they gave Megadeath a time slot as appose to having us miss fights because of it... I'd rather hear them in the background while I'm making a sandwich then Goldi and Rogan blathering about something... or the same movie trailor over and over again
Awesome show...
Can't believe how much punishment Rothwell took that dude's tough...
Nice to see an aggressive Andre and heavy0handed Vitor relive some old glory...
Nagao's got a chin on him, and Lindland looked sloppy...
Lil Nog looked good and Babalu looked like a more mature fighter (just like they said, I guess)... I think this is the only logical LHW matchup they have really... maybe with the winner fighting Tito...
36 f'n seconds... are you serious? Iv'e never seen Big Tim handled like that... wow

I thought the fights were good and stuff. but the music in between everything and it took forever for them to fight. Im glad i didnt order it and got it for free cause when im watching mma i want to see fights not motorhead or whoever they had there.
thats ironic because you watched way more than the 5 fights the ufc gives you. i agree the music was bad but the talking i thought was less than the ufc. plus we didnt get the 50 - 30 second adds the ufc shows you for the next ppv. i enjoyed it overall and it was the best first show for an org that i have ever seen. well ufc 1 was great but it was a shocker to me as well so that was a big part of it.

I absoutly loved it. The only thing I didn't like was the ropes, the Japanese ropes are much tighter and give much more support.
