Possibly the best card from top to bottom since UFC 100. I get the push for UFC 189 and I fucking love it but this card should be getting much more promotion than it is. Hopefully after the 189 World Tour they will focus on this card more.

Jones vs Rumble
Weidman vs Belfort
Khabib vs Cowboy
Browne vs Arvloski
Benavidez vs Moraga
Dodson vs Makovsky
Stungun vs Burkman
Hall vs Natal
Thug Rose vs Ansaroff
Pyle vs Spencer
Scoggins vs Sampo

Are you shitting me with this card???

This card sells itself. You wouldn't need more than two weeks of spam to get the world interested, for those that don't already know.
Do you know about it?
Of course.
I'm not concerned with the UFC's promotional ability or their finances.
Then of course there's the probability that one of the main's will not even occur.
In which case you'll get the promotion blitz you're looking for.

I'm am concerned however with Spike's lack of promotion, and it seems they are playing it awfully low key.
And I believe all these issues, including promotion of 189, are all interlinked and strategically analyzed due to the lawsuit.

Probably the best main card this year assuming nobody gets hurt. I give big props to Burkman for stepping up against Lombard when most wouldn't and I'm impressed he went the distance. God I hope AJ can mix up the LHW division and AA gets in a roll.

Jesus, if there's a time that you can make it up to Vitor for all the bad things that have happened to him this is your chance. Just bless him with one more head kick KO so he can silence the critics and wrap up his legendary career.

I don't know about the under-promoted part, but 187 is stacked! Can't wait for that event.

This proves the UFC is hurting from the shit PPV's last year. No more watered down numbered events I hope.

After watching that Jose and Conor video the UFC really needs to step up for Vitor and that American guy
