The first show was UFC Unleashed where they show some matches from people's careers. It must have been Liddell's episode. It's a weekly television show, but from past events.
The second show was The Ultimate Fighter 3. This is where teams compete in a tournament like system and the last man standing from each weight class wins a contract for the UFC. However in some cases (See Bonnar vs. Griffin-UFN 1/Herman vs. Grove-UFN 4) both men are offered contracts, but only the winner wins the money ammount.

Huh...I was joking, but I guess Im half right.
Whats the deal then, they know the winner but fight for real up until the finish? Or you just mean promos?

Don't we all Chux? Don't we all?
UFC is about 40\60 boring to exciting ratio. Most fights don't go to decision and the fights with the big names usually end early and if they do go to decision, they are great fights. The skill level is amazing. Makes you want to start tapping guys out.

Agreed Mike, especially Bonnar vs. Griffin 1 & 2 even though I think one was better. Anyone getting this on Saturday? I know I am going to my friends house which is pretty much a blast arena where we all go to watch the PPV's.

UFC is about 90/10 boring to exciting ratio, man. There's like five good fighters in the whole thing, and the rest are either hopped up on Xyiroids or are pitted against people so far below their level that it's not even funny. I mean, watching Tim Sylvia fight is like watching paint dry, and the only reason he's won any matches or titles is because he's about 9'5" and fights guys consistently half a foot or more shorter than him.
And, as for it being scripted...it's hard to argue against that when a man can win a title after passing out and losing the match, then see his truly victorious opponent get drowned out amidst boos and 'USA' chants from the fans for ten minutes.

Fear not, Cro Crop is on his way to remove Sylvia's head.

The only thing that would be better than that... Is Fedor beating Sylvia into oblivion.
