As far as I understand, and correct me if I'm wrong, but they tried to book Shamrock/Ortiz following the finale of the Ultimate Fighter and that's just wrong. If I wanted to see gimmicks and stories, I'd watch wrestling.
That was exactly what they did. They knew they wanted to fight so they told them to coach the teams in series 3 and then they'd fight after it. And it turned into the biggest MMA PPV of all time. Not bad eh. But if you'd rather watch wrestling then crack on.

And if you think boxing doesn't do the same then open your eyes mate.
