Mr. White,

For several years now I have been a loyal fan of the Ultimate Fighting Championship and a strong supporter of what your company has been trying to accomplish in the world of mixed martial arts.  I must admit that I have become dismayed by the pay-per-view events that have taken place over the past year.

The fights themselves are not the problem.  While I understand each event has a finite amount of time in which to broadcast fights, I believe the fans would be better served by showing more of the undercards.  Although I comprehend the need for advertising, I would rather see fights than movie previews or pieces on the release of new video games.

In the past I have made the argument that UFC pay-per-view events give the most entertainment value for your dollar.  I always felt that I was guaranteed a solid three hours of entertainment for a reasonable fee.  Now that my cable company is raising the fee it charges and with the event broadcast being increasingly filled with non-fight material, I no longer can support my past claims.

I implore you to improve the pay-per-view broadcasts.  UFC has helped fuel the growth of this sport with its television events.  Please look at this from the average fan’s point of view and not at the ability to squeeze more advertising revenue from these broadcasts.  All we want is fights, not the filler.

I appreciate your attention in this matter.
