That's right....UFC 70 will air LIVE and FREE on SpikeTV...this is insane. Granted, its not by choice, but what a friggin huge move this is for the UFC. This could be the greatest thing to happen to them in a long time.

YEAH! This is good

Just found out Forrest is fighting Machida

That's going to be a good one but Machida is just to well rounded for Forrest I believe. Machida has one hell of a stand up game.

I don't think that it is live though....could be lots of commercials...but it is nice to see a free show

I don't know if it will be live. For it to be live it would have to be broadcast at like 2 in the afternoon since it's in England. It will probably be on a 5 hour tape delay.

Alright...apparently they've changed their mind :P It will now be broadcast on a tape delay, showing at 9 PM EST rather than 2 PM as previously slated.
