Despite large portions of the East Coast losing power and not being able to tune in, Spike TV’s “UFC Prelims” special for this past weekend’s UFC 134 event drew a 0.9 household rating and averaged 1.3 million viewers. It was the day’s No. 1 rated cable program among men 18-48.
Spike TV officials today emailed the figures to MMAjunkie.com.
Due to Hurricane Irene sapping many would-be viewers’ electricity, Spike TV will re-air the one-hour special on Thursday at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

The motor racing world is a gloriously inward-looking one. People worry more about the number of sets of tyres that should be allowed for a weekend rather than whether the world is teetering on the brink of a new economic crisis. It has always been like this, but the relative ease with which F1 sailed [...]

“After I lost the B.J. Penn fight, I lost control. I lost control of life. I had just made my biggest payday and I was just down about the loss. That was my dream to become world champion, and it still is. But it was at my fingertips and the way I lost, getting cut, so brutally cut, I was beat up… I took the wrong path. I took the path of partying, and I was just drinking away my sorrows. I was handling the problem the wrong way…
I let some bad influences get into my life and it was a downward spiral. It was like a tornado sucking everything in. I let a person that I thought was a friend, a real close friend, someone that would help me with finances, I had him helping me out with stuff. Turned out I got embezzled for over $170,000. He conned me. I got conned so bad. And in the same time when I got conned, I was just wasting the money that I had earned… I was sucked into a life of sin. I was smoking weed, I was drinking, partying, and it just really, truly held me back from my potential.
You know what I did? I grew up. I stopped living that little young life that I want to do what I want to do when I want to do it, and that’s how I want to do it. Now, I’m [living] a different life, a real adult life.”
-Diego Sanchez talks to MMAWeekly.com and opens up about the pitfalls he went through after his loss to B.J. Penn at the end of 2009.
Penick’s Analysis: After the loss to Penn, Sanchez looked the worst he’s ever looked when he was defeated by John Hathaway, but the turn around he’s shown in his last two fights is obvious. He’s changed his life around, and he’s looked good in his last two wins, even if he more than likely should have lost the decision to Martin Kampmann. Still, It’s a depressing story to hear what he went through after that loss to Penn, but it can be an inspiration to others in that he’s been able to rebound and get himself away from those things that were destroying him. He’s got a huge fight at UFC 135 with Matt Hughes, and as long as he continues to keep himself in a good place mentally and physically he’ll be in a much better spot in his life and his career.

Just weeks before UFC light-heavyweight champ Jon Jones’ first title defense and Quinton Jackson’s first opportunity to reclaim his lost title, a behind-the-scenes drama has spilled into the public.
Jackson has accused Jones’ camp of infiltrating a private, Denver-area facility where he’s sequestered himself in preparation for their headlining fight at UFC 135.
He said he’s proven there’s a spy in his midst.
