Calling all 18-34 year old males. There is a lot of mixed martial arts action on tonight, televised for free courtesy of the UFC and SpikeTV.

“Ultimate Fight Night: Diaz Vs. Neer” will air at 8PM. For a free card, the televised lineup is pretty intriguing. I am really looking forward to all of these fights.

Televised bouts:

Following the event, the eighth installment of Spike TV’s hit reality television series “The Ultimate Fighter: Team Mir vs. Team Nogueira” will air.

The Ultimate Fighter series regularly received top billing in its first season with the coveted 18-34 male viewers, and regularly garners ratings higher than the NBA, NHL, NASCAR as well as collegiate football and basketball in the 18-34 year old male demographic.

The eighth season of The Ultimate Fighter features Lightweight (155lbs) and Light Heavyweight (205lbs) tournaments. Interim UFC Heavyweight Champion ‘Minotauro’ Nogueira and former UFC Heavyweight titleholder Frank Mir are coaches of this seasons’ fighters. At the conclusion of the show, the two coaches will square off in a much anticipated heavyweight bout.

- “Ultimate Fight Night: Diaz Vs. Neer” will air at 8PM EST

– “The Ultimate Fighter: Team Mir vs. Team Nogueira” will air at 10pm EST
