How about that JDS!? dominated cain in 64 seconds.

I was very happy to seen Junior to win.

Hoping to see Lesnar beat Overeem!!!!!!!! WARRR

i'm glad to see it on FOX but they dropped the ball on this one. You're not going to get anyone else interested in UFC if they watch for an hour to see 1 minute of action. They should have shown some of the other fights they had through out the night. If their contract with UFC only allows 1 fight a night, FOX got screwed.

I really don't care about UFC being on Fox, but it was nice to see Junior knock out Cain. I imagine the rematch will be a completely different fight.

I dont think they dropped the ball at all. This was a pre show to get interest out there. They showed a heavy weight fight, that ended in a knock out. Always exciting! The reason for a one hour show with only one fight was because their deal doesnt start till next year. The next one will have more than one fight for sure. JDS is awesome, I was excited to see that over hand right come in heavy!

The problem is that most people that aren't really familiar with it thought it was a waste of time. I heard a few people in the bar I was at complaining about watching an hour long show for less than 1 round of fighting, said they didn't see what the big fuss about MMA is. I wish it would have went longer also but that was a helluva punch. I just hope the next show on FOX has multiple fights so poeple can really see how amazing these athletes are.

looks like dana is saying 2 hours and 4 fights for the first fox show next year! I could see how non fans could have a hard time swallowing it, but theyll come around if they have the potential to be fans.

The actual contract agreement with Fox doesn't even start until 2012. After 2012 ALL PPV prelim fights will be on either FX or FUEL TV. Also, the Ultimate Fighter Show will be on FX with a LIVE fight EVERY Friday. I see the Cain/JDS fight as a lose lose. If the fight goes 5 rounds and ends in a decision, then the new fans or casual fans complain about how boring it was and if it ended as it did they complain about how short it was. Those of us who have been following the UFC since its inception and I'm not talking about the UFC after the first Ultimate Fighter show knows that these things happen. I personally watched a hockey game all the way up until the fight started to skip all the BS beforehand.

If Brock can take him to the ground right away he should have a chance. If not, he's going to turtle up once he starts getting hit like he did against Cain Velasquez. Overeem is one of the best kickboxers in MMA and is a feared and very brutal striker. The fight starts standing at the beginning of every round, best game plan for Brock is to shoot right away and take him down.

 

Alistair Overeem wins this by brutal KO!
