it's an amazing experience to be honest...you can see more on TV obviously, but it's something that you need to experience if you enjoy the UFC. I'd get there early, go to the weigh ins, to the fan expo....UFC always puts on a good show.
I've been to a lot more Strikeforce events, but attended both the UFC events in San Jose...ufc 139 was the one with shogun vs. henderson...hands down one of the top 5 sporting event experiences I have had the privilege to attend thus far

Yeah, I've been to a few. The UFC is really good at interacting with their fans. A lot of the fighters will be in attendance and during intermissions and before the event, I think they're told by the boss man (Dana) to walk through the crowd and greet/photos/autographs. I took 4 younger guys (10-15 years old) and a couple of buddies to the last event (Rampage vs Jones) here in Denver. We got to meet a bunch of fighters like Brendan Schaub, Duane Ludwig, Shane Carwin, Urijah Faber, and then Dana himself. All good people. I would suggest getting to the event early as someone already said. Also, unless you have the best seats, as most have said, you can't really see much. But there are good screens all over with the PPV coverage in the arena. I've been to a bunch of local shows too and I typically don't even try to watch through the cage at those events - just watch screens. Have fun.
i doubt I'll be hearing anything that isn't out there already . . You never know though . Thanks murphsweet man..enjoy it.. I am sure u will have a blast!!! :toast:
im sure this wont happen, but if u get any inside info on a fight (fatigue/partying night before/etc) bout a fighter let us know
