"UFC Primetime" returns to Spike TV, UFC 111's St-Pierre and Hardy featured

Image

In anticipation of their UFC 111 main-event fight, UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre and challenger Dan Hardy will be featured in "UFC Primetime," a three-part special that airs on Spike TV.

The first episode debuts on Spike TV tonight at 10 p.m. ET/PT, while parts two and three will air in the same timeslot on March 17 and March 24, respectively.

UFC 111 takes place March 27 at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., and airs on pay-per-view.

Different from the UFC's traditional "Countdown" shows, "UFC Primetime" goes more in depth and focuses on some of the biggest fights of the year. One popular "Primetime" special, for example, focused on the highly anticipated second meeting between St-Pierre and B.J. Penn, which took place at UFC 94 in January 2009.

The UFC 111 special follows Hardy as he prepares for his bout in his home country of England. The cameras also focus on St-Pierre has he holds his fight camp in Canada and the U.S.

In addition to the in-depth look at St-Pierre and Hardy, Spike TV will also air the UFC's traditional "Countdown" special.

"Countdown to UFC 111," which previews additional bouts on the main card, debuts Wednesday, March 17 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT on the UFC's longtime cable home.

Replays are set for March 25 (2 a.m. ET/PT), March 26 (12:30 a.m. ET/PT and 6:30 p.m. ET/PT) and March 27 (2:30 p.m. ET/PT).

St-Pierre (19-2 MMA, 13-2 UFC), widely regarded as one of the sport's top pound-for-pound fighters, carries a six-fight winning streak into the upcoming contest. By March, the Canadian will have been on the shelf for eight months while recovering from a groin injury suffered in a July title defense over Thiago Alves.

Hardy (23-6 MMA, 4-0 UFC), meanwhile, owns a seven-fight win streak that includes a perfect 4-0 mark in the UFC. The British slugger defeated Mike Swick in November at UFC 105 to earn his title shot.

The full UFC 111 card includes:

MAIN CARD

* Champ Georges St-Pierre vs. Dan Hardy (for welterweight title)
* Shane Carwin vs. Frank Mir (for interim heavyweight title)
* Jake Ellenberger vs. Ben Saunders
* Thiago Alves vs. Jon Fitch
* Mark Bocek vs. Jim Miller

PRELIMINARY CARD (Spike TV)

* Nate Diaz vs. Rory Markham
* Ricardo Almeida vs. Matt Brown

PRELIMINARY CARD (Un-aired)

* Fabricio Camoes vs. Kurt Pellegrino
* Jared Hamman vs. Rodney Wallace
* Tomasz Drwal vs. Rousimar Palhares
* Matthew Riddle vs. Greg Soto

Watch the first episode last night. Good stuff.

GSP is a machine, what a training program.

Favourite quote from episode 1

"I'm surprised GSP can get his jeans on with all those people hanging on his nuts"
:lol: :lol: :lol:
