UFC minus HBO equals Spike TV

MultiChannel.com reported today that HBO and the UFC have parted ways. Apparently, negotiations came to an unsuccessful end after months of wrangling.

This "bad news" may be good news for Spike TV. As reported by MultiChannel.com and elsewhere, Spike TV aired UFC 75 in August 2007, garnering 4.7 million viewers, which was the largest ever viewership for a UFC event in North America.
