This is my latest post for the SeatGeek Blog, check it out!
Preview:
On Saturday August 28th, the UFC heads to Boston for the first time with a highly anticipated main event between Frankie Edgar and BJ Penn (Edgar vs Penn 2 for the Light Heavyweight Championship). In their first fight, on April 10, 2010 at UFC 112, Edgar won a narrow and controversial decision after 5 rounds of fighting. This Saturday, they meet again in a much anticipated rematch and I teamed up with James Kimball from MMAmania.com to provide some expert insights beyond the fan demand data that we always bring you here at SeatGeek.

Silva-Sonnen the best fight ever?

Thinking that his devastating last 2 minute loss might be good for his career if it does go down as the best fight of all time he will have constant admiration as well as respect from Dana, etc. ala Griffin and American Psycho. This assumes that the victory would have been deemed “flukish” and that he would have lost the belt in an instant rematch.

Coming up with UFC Event Names - The Formula
I was reading Top 10 Lamest UFC Event Names and realized these names are truly ridiculous and with UFC 112 “Invincible” coming up this Saturday, they are not getting any better.
The more I looked at them, the more I realized the team at UFC coming up these names must follow a simple 3 step formula:
1) If the main event fighters have solid records (i.e. Penn, Edgar, Silva), realize that they are hard to beat. Then think of the word unbeatable - want a “better” word so type ‘unbeatable’ into Microsoft Word and select synonyms - choose the first word on the list.
2. Alternatively, Go to the Action genre on IMDB and pick one of the most poorly rated 90s movies at random, such as “High Voltage” featuring famed reality tv star Antonio Sabato Jr. of ‘My Antonio’ (note this was an amazing show on VH1 in 2009).
Expect to see an upcoming event titled UFC 113 Machida vs. Shogun “The Final Sacrifice”.
3. If all else fails, put the word “Ultimate” in front of any string of words - particularly easy to pick a movie title at random (see UFC 26):
In Costner’s defense, there is something about the way he is striking that pose that suggests he might have strong stand up.
So there it is, the formula for creating a great UFC Event name. Based on this formula, I am predicting UFC’s entry into the Asian market with UFC 120: Tokyo Drift. You heard it here first. (note the first comment: “This song makes me wanna go drift RIGHT NOW”)
