Word is they drew 6.5 million viewers, which is better than a 4 rating. That's the most ever for a live MMA fight on basic cable. And EliteXC is definitely bush-league compared to UFC, both in the quality of fighters and production wise (though UFC doesn't fight women yet, and again, Gina Carano was awesome).
Slice (aka "Kevin Ferguson") is a chump, but he's the best draw that EliteXC has. Even his YouTube videos are bull. He's a classless mouth that weighs 270 pounds.
