Dominick Cruz is fighting? On the prelims? A) I thought he was retired. B) I thought he was still a big star as a former champ commentator.
Damn, my casual status is officially confirmed. |

His chin was never great and he seems to be in real danger of getting permanently damaged if he keeps fighting. He was fantastic in his prime and I appreciate the ass kicking he gave Lesnar, but it's most likely time for him to retire. |

For the last few years Reem has been fighting like his career will be over if somebody so much as touches him....because it's basically true. If it was anybody less technically skilled than him, they would have washed out earlier. |

Damn, my casual status is officially confirmed. He was hurt, again, for the time between Cody and Cejudo. Since Cejudo last year, I don't know why he hasn't fought. I haven't noticed him commentating on many cards either. Maybe he was just a little wore out on it? Him being on the prelims was news a little bit ago, I forget if they said why he is, but I remember he basically said "IDGAF" about it. |

He claims the last prelim slot gives him the most exposure to fans, to get his name back out there since he had a long layoff. https://www.google.com/amp/s/mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2021/02/dominick-cruz-couldnt-care-less-about-ufc-259-prelims-placement-im-not-really-attached-to-my-ego/amp |

The last prelim slot is often used as a sort of prelim main event, with the idea that it is the last impression of the free fights and is most likely to sell the PPV to the casual fan who may be on the fence about buying it. |

I believe it. It's true. It's not behind the PPV paywall, plus the prelims are on big ESPN. so it'll have lots of viewers. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Have the early prelims ever been on broadcast tv? I seem to only recall them on fight pass or espn+. Yeah a few times. If it’s a really stacked card and they’re wanting more exposure for PPV buys, they’ll put the early prelims on ESPN2/ESPN News, etc. In the past, they’d be on Fox Sports 2 or similar. |

Prelims stay on ESPN2 until college basketball game is over, then switches to ESPN.
