Not to look like a conspiracy theorist but they seems to be a lot more injuries since the UFC injuries insurance policy went in effect
Agree completely. It is going to hurt the sport big time. Here's a quick list of guys scratched due to injury just since UFC 146: Domick Cruz Evan Dunham Mark Hunt Jon Fitch Thiago Alves Thiago Silva Brian Stann Jose Aldo Michael Bisping Vitor Belfort Yoshiro Akiyama Chad Griggs UFC 147 is just an absolute joke of a card. And UFC 148 and 149 were stacked cards at one point. But now, the UFC is limited to mediocre cards over the next few months. Injuries, drug suspensions, and TOO many events are going to really diminish the success of the UFC. I'd be shocked if UFC 147 did 200K PPV buys. If Silva or Sonnen pulls out, and Silva is rumored to have hurt his knee, the UFC might need to cancel some events and re-group. They are trying to put solid fights on FOX and FX while still trying to fill and sell 13-14 PPV's in 2012. It isn't working out.
