Hi guys
can anyone tell me when this is being shown and on what channel??
Providing Setanta are still in business it will be shown exclusively on there on the 11th (I believe it starts at 3AM, so you'll want to sky+ it if you can).can anyone tell me when this is being shown and on what channel??
Edited to add: Brock Lesnar v Mir will be a war!! Brock now has a few years of training and some experience behind him, and has been improving rapidly, can't wait to see what he brings this time round.

it should be on setanta but that is very much in doubt just now for obvious reasons! The UFC said before ufc99 that that show would be shown on uk tv regardless of setanta going bust by moving it to bravo. It was shown on setanta in the end but i dont think they'll still be around to show 100 so it'll probably be on bravo, live I hope.
Its scheduled for july 11th.

the whole card is amazing
Main card
* Heavyweight Championship bout: Champion Brock Lesnar vs. Interim Champion Frank Mir[1]
* Welterweight Championship bout: Georges St-Pierre vs. Thiago Alves[1]
* Middleweight bout: Dan Henderson vs. Michael Bisping[1]
* Welterweight bout: Jon Fitch vs. Paulo Thiago[1]
* Middleweight bout: Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Alan Belcher[1]
Preliminary card
* Light Heavyweight bout: Mark Coleman vs. Stephan Bonnar[1]
* Lightweight bout: Mac Danzig vs. Jim Miller[1]
* Welterweight bout: Dong Hyun Kim vs. TJ Grant[20]
* Light Heavyweight bout: Jon Jones vs. Jake O'Brien[1]

at least 4 of those undercard fights would easily make it to the main card on a normal ppv!

Well i hope they do shift it to bravo, as i am really looking forward to this one. IIRC isnt gsp fighting on the same bill? If he is, then him fighting followed by lesnar-mir should be worth getting up at 3 for!
Bravo appear to have some new MMA show, ironic if UFC drops back in their laps. I'm surprised that MMA doesn't have a big enough following to attract Sky.Fittster said:

sky dont like mma after they showed cage rage, after the first fight of the broadcast the winner started swearing his head off.So OK to broadcast people battering each other but no swearing!
Anyway fingers crossed for Bravo to snap up UFC.

Top News!im looking forward to watching it like I am with every UFC, but Lesner is such a boring fighter, he just mauls and lays on people... Having said that, hasn't Mir beaten him before??
ALl I hope is that it is better than the 99 in Germany, every round went on and on, no big knock outs...

I don't think that he has had enough fights to catogorise him as a boring Lay and prey fighter. Every fight in his very short MMA career has been different.ALl I hope is that it is better than the 99 in Germany, every round went on and on, no big knock outs...
He was hurting mir before he gave his ankle to a BJJ master. The Lesnar that fought Mir before, will be very different to the Lesanr at UFC100.
Really hope Bisping beats Hendo.
I detest lesnar, hes never stuck at anything in his life, finished college and instead of going to the olympics he took the cash and went pantomime wrestling for the wwe. He got arrested for having a s
t load of hgh and 'roids in his car boot during that time, then he quit wrestling for the wwe and decided to try NFL despite having no experience of pro football. He got cut before the season started after he polaxed some poor bugger in a pre season knock up game with his own teammates.
Then he decided that mma looked like a good lark and has blustered his way through it so far, beating min soo kim (a washed up judoka with a poor mma record) in K1. He the got into the UFC, and Frank made him cry and look like an idiot. He then beat Heath Herring and tarnished that victory with some pretty pathetic antics during and after the fight. So after that fight he had a 2-1 victory and got a title shot, which he won by beating a 44 year old puffed up light heavyweight (couture).
Now hes going about saying his title is the real one and Mirs interim one is a "made up title". What a, heres a history lvsson for you Mr Lesnar;
Mir never lost his title, he had it stripped from him when he was unable to defend it after his horrific motorcycle accident. Lesnars title wasnt defended for far longer than that by couture and he only kept it as it was a legal bargaining chip for the UFC (having couture as champion prevented him from legally competing elsewhere). So Brock, the title youve got is nothing more than a hangover mickey mouse belt from a legal mess up, Mir has one thats been defended and won far more often recently and lets face it, Mir has never been defeated whilst champion. Brock should show some respect to the guy who made him tap.
Brock also has a tattoo of a cock on his chest.
