UFC on FOX

This past week, the UFC signed a multi-year multi-million dollar deal.  This partnership will allow mma and more importantly the UFC to be exposed to millions of homes.  The UFC will hold 4 free events to be aired on FOX in primetime on a Saturday night.  To mma fans this is an exciting time.  New viewers, new opportunities, and new sponsors will now be available to the UFC.  To the Hardcore Fans, this is the beginning of the end of the days of the wild west of mma.  The UFC has gone mainstream and it will only get bigger.  You no longer will be the only person you know who recognizes: Carlos Condit, Donald Cerrone, and Phil Davis.  I enjoyed those days and will miss them.  But I am excited to have others to talk to about MMA and UFC about in person as opposed to on message boards and twitter.  The good days have ended for the hardcore and good days beginning for the novice MMA fans.
