If even 2 of them go to decisions (and maybe if just one does), definitely. You figure such a fight from start to finish, entrances and post-fight stuff included, usually goes a good 20-25 minutes, and even if that other fight ended in a quick KO it still takes at least 10 minutes of TV time.

As usual, it seems now, we're starting late. No word yet on when exactly the first fight will start, but it'll probably be McKee-Volkmann.
Tonight would be a good night to have multiple TVs/PIP between UFC, BCS Bowls and the Winter Classic all coming up.
Update: First fight start ET-7:40 PM ET.
Update 2: First fight will start at about that time. Fighters now headed to cage.

I bought into Mckee's wrestling pedigree even though Volkmann is a great wrestler himself.
