Default PPV Vs Spike TV

what was everyones opinion on getting to see UFC 70 for free. I personally was annoyed as hell with the amount of commercials that were on. in between every round there would be a commercial and it was pissing me right off. i understand that it is cable tv and commercials were to be expected but hell, the amount of commercials lastnight and the timing was just annoying.

I'm with you 100%, but we both know that the commercials paid our tab. I just flipped over to the playoffs and checked in between rounds. I'm also pretty surprised no one slipped and dropped an F bomb or anything.

The commercials between rounds didn't bother me at all. There is a 1 minute break between the rounds, that we would have to deal with on a PPV, this time it was just commercials instead of watching the corners.

I thought this event went Much more smoothly in terms of keeping the flow of the show going compared to some of the UFNs.

The commercials were annoying the hell out of me too. I understand advertising pays the bills, so I'm not going to boycott or anything - it just got old.

In terms of commercials paying for the thing - I don't personally pay for a lot of UFC PPV's anyway. I watch almost all of them down at the local Hooters with some friends. So instead of $40 per PPV I cough up the cost of a chicken sandwich and drink.
