This is a great move for the UFC. Latin people are great fans of boxing and wrestling. Also, this will help the UFC market their spanish speaking fighters. Arriba, UFC, Arriba, FSE.
If the Spanish they use is as shitty and filled with grammar mistakes as the one on their Spanish Web site, then I wouldn’t keep my hopes up.
Well, they have good opportunity here. Let’s hope they don’t blow it. If I were them, with the beginning of Anderson Silva’s reign, they might consider Portugeuse as well.
I just hope they hire some of CMLL’s chicks as ring girls.
