You have to feel for these people.
No, not the fighters who found themselves out of competition at UFC on Fox 19 because of injuries or performance-enhancing drugs or what have you. I speak instead of those poor television executives.
The event’s main card airs on “big” Fox Saturday, even as the NBA and NHL playoffs get underway. Fox goes into that war down a main event (thanks to Tony Ferguson’s injury) and a co-main event (h/t Lyoto Machida’s admitted use of a banned substance).
But you have to admire the moxie of these television executives. They shoulder on. They go to battle day in and day out, no matter how steeply the card is stacked against them. In that spirit, so shall we do the same.
We in this case being the Bleacher Report main card staff predictions team. Syd “Vicious” Jones. Craig “Cookie” Amos. Steven Rondina. Nathan McCarter. And myself, Scott Harris. Let’s get it on.
