Spike had already announced the primary cable home of the Ultimate Fighting Championships would be airing a 2 hour special entitled "UFC Prelims" prior to the pay per view broadcast this Saturday night. Now that’s a prime example of a network working hand-in-hand with a promotion to ensure maximum momentum going into the actual PPV event.
Spike also confirmed today a Light Heavyweight contest between Seth Petruzelli and Ricardo Romeo will now be seen on the 2 hour special.
Spike had originally planned only a one hour special, which would see the Heavyweight fight of Brendan Schaub vs. Chris Tuchscherer, and a Middleweight contest featuring Kendall Grove vs. Goran Reljic.
Grove then caused an uproar by bad mouthing Spike TV, and was pulled from the special.
As of this posting, here is the official lineup for UFC 116:
