If this event was going to have a good Main Event they would have announced it already, they do this with the majority of UK events, wait for the fans to buy the tickets and then tell them who's fighting



Nice. Mr Negativity was finally banned.

I hope they show it live, but they normally tape delay the UK fights and show them during prime time. Its free though, so I can't really complain.

Bisping will almost certainly headline/co-headline this card as he's almost on home turf. The Wolfslair is about a half hour drive away.

It would be good to see him face a quality opponent and not just a can to get him back in the W column just because he's a poster boy.

Somebody like Wanderlei Silva, or the loser of Maia/Marquadt or even Sexyama.

Yeah i'm thinking Bisping will headline it too.

Bisping vs. Sexyama would be an awesome fight but definitely isn't Main Event worth, ah well.

The event will probably have 7 fights which involve UK guys.

As long as there is an equally strong co-main event i think that would be fine.

If the ticket's aren't as expensive as they usualy are and we get a poor card then I won't complain. It's the fact that they charge such high prices for such awful cards that annoys me. Tickets to UFC 95 cost the same as tickets to UFC 84, UFC 91, UFC 100 etc......It's just a giant piss take.

I thoughts ticket prices were the same/similar for all UFC events

They are, and that's my point.

Tickets for Bisping vs. Leben (UFC 89) should be less than tickets for Ortiz vs. Machida, Wandy vs. Jardine and Penn vs. Sherk (UFC 84).
