UFC on Fox 4 TV Ratings Up from UFC on Fox 3 While Going Head-to-Head with Olympics The Ultimate Fighting Championship's latest event on "Big Fox," Saturday night's UFC on Fox 4: Shogun vs. Vera, didn't suffer a drop in TV ratings from May's UFC on Fox 3: Diaz vs. Miller, and with final numbers released actually upped total viewers from the last show on Fox. UFC on Fox 4 Prelims TV Ratings Spur Further Growth for Fuel TV While the UFC on Fox 4: Shogun vs. Vera TV ratings for "Big Fox" remained fairly steady with May's UFC on Fox 3, the three-hour preliminary block of fights on Fuel TV did record numbers. "UFC 150: Frankie Edgar Vs Benson Henderson" Main Card Picks and Predictions: Fan's Take UFC on Fox 4 got August off to a rollicking start, but UFC 150 features a stacked lineup that should keep the month going strong. Joe Lauzon Tied with Anderson Silva, Nine UFC Fight Bonus Awards: Fan's Look UFC fighter and Massachusetts native, Joe Lauzon, has something in common with the pound-for-pound King of MMA and UFC Middleweight Champion, Anderson Silva. As of winning his fight against former WEC champion, Jamie Varner at UFC on Fox 4, Lauzon has received nine UFC fight bonus awards--exactly the same number as Anderson Silva has received. UFC 150 Predictions: Fan's Take Former lightweight champion, Frankie Edgar, will get a chance to win back his title at UFC 150 when he faces current champ Benson Henderson for the second time. The event will be held on Aug. 11, at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colo. Here are my predictions for the entire UFC 150 fight card: Should UFC President Dana White Allow Fighters to Show More Flair? Fan's View UFC President Dana White is the polar opposite of Stan, the Chotchkie's manager in the movie Office Space, who chided employees for not wearing enough flair. Viewers' guide to UFC 150 This is your life, Frankie Edgar. You step into the octagon for a fight, and across the cage stands a familiar face. Not every time, of course, but every second time. First there's the title bout. Then there's the rematch. That's the rhythm of the beat of your fighter's heart. UFC Continues to Grow Fuel TV's Audience It became evident right away that a big part of Fox's strategy in partnering with the Ultimate Fighting Championship was to grow is struggling action sports brand, Fuel TV. Rory MacDonald Out of UFC 152 BJ Penn Fight Just when UFC 152 finalized its trio of headlining fights, one of the top Canadian competitors is off the show. Lyoto Machida's KO Finish Earns Him Next Crack at UFC Light Heavyweight Championship UFC president Dana White said earlier this week that the winner between Mauricio "Shogun" Rua and Brandon Vera at UFC on Fox 4 would get the next crack at the UFC light heavyweight championship.
