MMA on popular Arabic Network (IFL)

[The Elemental]

I think posting this would be a good thing to do to prove to the "haters" that MMA has really reached the masses.
There are plans to air IFL on MBC ACTION, an action themed block. which is part of the popular Dubai based network, MBC. They gave it a Coming Soon ad, which means they are gonna air it. Who knows maybe they'll air TUF series if IFL proves to be successful.
MAC ACTION that was launched in late 2006 was successful due to showing popular action themed shows like LOST, Prison Break, Nash Bridges...etc
This is not the first time MMA aired on an Arabic network. A couple of years earlier, PRIDE used to air on Orbit but was taken off because the heads at Orbit didn't think it would attract a large audience.

It doesn't matter. Fans of the WWE and Boxing refuse to see it happening. They are reduced to throwing out statistics now, which are dwindling by the way. MMA has the age bracket needed by those entities locked up practically. If not already, more people will be doing MMA than those entities.
