Default UFC Primetime: GSP vs Hardy (starts tonight)
Airs tonight at 10PM ET on Spike
For Canucks, who wanna watch in HD, it airs at various times on the SportsNet channels over the next few days. Check your guide for deets.

UFC Primetime, the three-part Spike TV series designed to hype the UFC 111 bout between Georges St. Pierre and Dan Hardy, debuts on Wednesday night. And the overarching theme of the series is expected to be the contrast between St. Pierre as the consummate professional mixed martial artist and Hardy as the trash-talking brawler.

Spike distributed a press release on Tuesday quoting Hardy talking about how much delight he'll take in making St. Pierre's fans upset.

"I know that I can give GSP hell when the times come," Hardy said. "It's so sweet stepping out into the Octagon on the other side saying, 'I told you so.' All these GSP fans that are betting the house on him, when they wake up Sunday morning ... they aren't going to be too impressed with themselves."

St. Pierre, on the other hand, will be shown (as in the brief clip above) as a quietly confident fighter who's at the peak of his physical condition and is more interested in working hard than talking big.

"I am the most confident guy I've ever been in my life, I got the knowledge, the experience of championship fights," St. Pierre says. "I've got everything on my side."

The UFC had some success with portraying St. Pierre as the good guy and Penn as the bad guy the last time it gave a big fight the Primetime treatment, but I think Hardy is even better suited to that role than Penn is. It's an easy angle for the UFC to use in selling this fight.

Got my conversions mixed up. I thought 10pm Canadian was only worth 9PM American

show was done really well with a great cliffhanger...

they got gsp doing olympic weight training, workin with renzo, meanwhile playin up that gsp still thinks about the serra fight and how he never wants it to happen again. enter hardy as the next guy to fill that role, dudes main and only focus seems to be to punch gsp face off his skull (the obvious gameplan everyone already knows about), mixed with extreme confidence...

entertaining 30 mins...

I really hope Hardy takes it to him, and maybe does punch his face off his skull.

i dont think matt serra can teach hardy anything for GSP

I think BJ actually would be better. I dunno the show just seemed too short. I think this show would be better as a 1 hour preview show. The 30 mins does nothing imo.
