The one hour highlight show is on Sky Sports 1 (all the others were on the weaker Sky Sports 2) at 10am on Thursday 26th May, with a repeat at 1am later that night/following morning.
They've had much longer than usual to put the show together this time and there's some great action for them to show off.
Judging by what actually happened on the show, and the way previous highlight shows were formatted, I'd definitely expect the following fights:
Mark Epstein v. Evangelista Cyborg Santos
Anderson Silva v. Jorge Rivera
Brad Pickett v. Aaron Blackwell (I'm guessing just round 2)
Robert 'Buzz' Berry v. Andy Costello
Curtis Stout v. Mark Weir
Abdul Mohamed v. Jess Liaudin
Whatever they choose to cram into their 46 minutes or so (an hour less TV ads time) expect a very exciting TV show.

It would indeed, especially since I don't have it, LOL. Have to rely on parents/friends to tape me Cage Rage, Shooto, pro wrestling and odd bits of K-1.

Nice Oldies you have. I asked my father to tape UFC and Aussie kickboxing when it was on Fox 8 and he told me he wouldn't waste a perfectly good video tape on "that crap" despite the fact, I paid for the bloody tapes.

I know, it sucks its on so much later than usual, especially since there's likely to be some really fun stuff on there.

LMAO. He once shook off claims he was just a Will Smith imitator by claiming he was actually more like the British Eddie Murphy.
Actually he DID provide some entertainment when he was being heckled by the crowd because of his money problems.

Blackwood once claimed that if he was white he'd be a prime time star.
:rolleyes:
I heard the show was delayed becuase of the bank hoilday on teh monday after Cage Rage delayed their editing, and Sky Sports have a lot of live tv lately on Thursday nights with prem League darts, snooker etc

Wondered if Bank Holiday had something do with it. And of course Sky have lots of ahem, sports, like darts and snooker to show.

Hey Fielding, I take it you're from the UK? Please don't tell me that Shooto has been coming on tv over here and I have been missing it!

As far as I know there has been one Shooto show on Eurosport. I've only caught one anyway. Abysmal commentary by the way but some typically good Shooto fights.

Was it on eurosport 2? I keep accidentally flicking onto there and finding fighting type programs. There was a Pancrase show with Kondo on it, and now they are showing old UWFi with Tamura and Takada. Good stuff.
