I hate Kendall Grove so fucking much.

I guess this shows that Spike is going to show the prelims for every UFC pay-per-view now... smart move, imo

A smart move for both sides. Live UFC fights draw good ratings for Spike, and it gives the UFC more exposure and more time to hype their PPVs.

I hate kendall Grove too. Jake had a good fight and beat a determined Leben soundly so I see Jake submitting Grove or K.O'n him once he gets near him.

I think this is super smart. I remember when WWE and WCW used to run live teasers into the show. It really does a good job of hardselling the PPV's. Now I know Saturday is free but on the real PPV's it's key.

Whoooo! Saunders v. Davis should be kick ass.
