The Kampmann Sanchez fight should be awesome. Kampmann for some reason is one of my favorite fighters but Diego at WW and back in the Jackson camp is one tough taco. I'm actually really surprised by the line. I thought it would be a pick em. Kampmann has a very good sprawl so maybe that's why because if this thing stays standing then he should be able to win it there. IMO he's the better "pure striker." lol

Martin Kampmann top 5 dumbest MMA fighters on the planet.

I will never ever ever put money on him ever again. Man is he an idiot when he enters the cage. Ya never know what you are going get with him.

Nice guy, just not smart when it comes to fighting.

Kampmann is one of my favorites too, but he doesn't always have a great gameplan. He gets hit way too much, and he has a small head. He's a great boxer and very skilled with subs. Hope he destroys this prick!!

i see this as a very tough fight for munoz,also,...caught it at +175 back on 01/16....

it`s a toss-up...just not a big munoz admirer...he might have trouble pulling this one out of his ass..

Is it just me or is this sport starting to get boring? Im not even gonna say it is the sport but it is the match making that is the problem. How the hell do u have a Fitch/Penn headliner? Everyone and their mother knows Fitch is a grinder. You don't put a grinder on the top of the card. Now here the number two fight is Munoz/Dollaway. Who the fuk wants to watch two wrestlers go at it? Now down on the card is Branch/Palahres. U tell me that people would much rather watch Dolloway/Munoz? I also think it is time to stop loading cards with hometown guys just because u are overseas. What is the point to get a bigger gate? At the expense of PPViews :shrug:

Got Sanchez and CB so far.

Sanchez/ Kampmann is a great fight between two guys that I think match perfectly together. I expect Sanchez to looking for the ground and we could see some great scrambles.

Got CB at a good line. Close fight but Munoz can be wild at times which could enable CB to dump him down

Got my eye on the Roller/ Tavares fight as well as the Diabate/ Caldwell fight. Need to do a bit more research before decide

I don't think the sport is getting boring. Yeah there are some dull fights but there are some great cards out there (a lot outside of the UFC).

Stacking cards with hometown guys helps build local media interest especially when the show comes to a new city/ country. Plus it can create a good television atmosphere.

As for PPV rates that will all change in the future when we go to internet TV. UFC are trying to set up a UFC station (they may see how the WWE one goes first and learn from that) and we may well just order the events from there or Internet companies may bid for the contract. When that happens PPV rates will go through the roof as more countries can order them than before (some countries get the PPV's for free though that will end one day and currently the total PPV is only from 3 countries I believe). UFC will then be able to keep all the revenue from PPV's instead of splitting 50/50 with the cable company. So I think it makes sense to build markets/ areas with local talent ready for when they go the internet PPV path. They already dipping their toes in the water with this Facebook thing

I was talking about the UFC. Funny u say that about the other organizations. I was thinking the same thing but the gorilla in the room is the UFC.
