Question

Which MMA show will have the better ratings this weekend? CBS - EliteXC or Versus - WEC?

Answer 1

WEC kimbo is fighting another nobody and WEC has pulver who was the best lightweight for a long time in the ufc

Answer 2

WEC will do better.  They have a very important title fight this weekend and it should be great.  Faber vs Pulver will be a non stop fight.  Both men have a lot to prove.  Faber is trying to show that he is a real champ and that he belongs among the best in the world at his weight class.  Pulver trying to keep his undefeated string at this weight class intact and, show that even though he has been around a long time he still belongs in the fight game.

Answer 3

Since the EliteXC card is on "free TV", I'm guessing there will be more people tuned in to watch that one. Many people have heard of Kimbo Slice.

That's not to say that Kimbo is in any way what I feel is a great MMA artist. I'm looking forward to the FABER fight more myself. But that's because I've seen FABER fight before. Most non-MMA fans don't even know who he is.

I'll be watching both cards though. The price is definitely right.

Answer 4

CBS - EliteXC will have higher rankings.  It is on basic cable and Kimbo is a very hot topic right now.

The WEC on VS network should have a lot better fights, but it is not as widely distributed.

The true MMA fan will enjoy the WEC more, whereas the whole public will likely be more interested in Kimbo.
