I thought the card was just fine. The issue was the main event started so late and they mixed in the Spencer fight for no reason. If you are already running late and the first fight goes the full distance, why are you putting that fight on? The timing was terrible for that card.
And looks like Shields/Hammer beat it in ratings by a decent margin.
FS1 overall have been putting on good/solid cards. This was par for course, but the ratings have been bad on all of them minus the first one.
Plant/Uzcategui
Dirrell/Yildrim
Peterson/Lipinets
Quillin/Traux
Like all main events were close to evenly matched. Had two championship fights on the first two cards. The quality of match ups are not the issue, just the main event fighters don't really have a big name.Comment

Exactly, the matchups have been fine. That isn't the problem here.I thought the card was just fine. The issue was the main event started so late and they mixed in the Spencer fight for no reason.

Horrible fight on paper or the actual fight? Because you judge really on paper on whether it is a good match up or not. What ends up happening after that is a crap shoot. You can have awesome shootouts on match ups you think are crap and then great match ups can end up being duds.
Because Derevyancheko/Culcay was a very solid match up. The fight itself wasn't great, but not terrible either. Culcay like he does against other top fighters competed very well.Comment

the ratings keep going down though. Plant Uzcategui was a great start but now they put on these garbage main events and a lot of the fights have been terrible like dervenchenko vs culcay, Durrell vs Yildrim.I thought the card was just fine.

Most of these main events should be co features but it’s pretty obvious these fs1 cards have low budgets.Comment

I fell asleep during that fight. Plus these fighters aren’t well knownHorrible fight on paper or the actual fight? Because you judge really on paper on whether it is a good match up or not.
