UFC 75 -- is it live on Spike?
 

Any UFC fans know if the fights Saturday on Spike TV are live? It starts at 9:00 EST on Spike and it's being held in London. It would be odd if they were fighting starting at 2 AM London time.

Pretty sure I heard it was on tape delay but Im just going off memory.

it will be on tape delay. Dana White admitted it was a mistake to run it fully live back in June when they were in belfast

I have a few friends that I see every UFC PPV with. We go down to Huntington Beach, CA to a street near the pier that is nothing but bars and restaurants. On UFC Saturday nights, nearly every place is showing the event and packed. That Saturday at noon, there was 1 place showing it and they didn't get full until an hour or so into the event. Bad idea having a noon PPV.

that was one of the problems that he cited was that they didn't have a split feed for the west coast, and even on the replay that happened around 7est didn't do all that well for those that live on the west coast. Basically it was an experiment that didn't work out well

Yeah, I'm staying the [censored] away from anything that might spoil the fight.

Bump - I noticed Setanta (in the UK) advertising the fight tonight, anyone know if that's on a separate PPV channel or on the normal package you pay a tenner a month for? Would be tempted to subscribe for a couple of months if it's the latter.

Never mind, it's on Sopcast now

I know the results for the Rampage fight. My wife works for him and is with his kids right now as I type. She just called me. PM me if interested.
