· UFC Fight Night 16: Fight For the Troops – Wednesday, December 10th
This event is a special bonus for fight fans. Also, it is a stand up gesture by the UFC. Say what you want about Dana White and the UFC, but no other fight organizations show the benevolence that the UFC does. The goal of these fights is to raise money for the Intrepid Fallen heroes Fund. Click here to find out more or to make donations. Not only is it a good cause, but there are several good fights. We will see stars such as Josh Ksocheck, Mike Swick, Matt Wiman, Jim Miller, WEC champ Steve Cantwell, and Luigi Fiorvanti. Tune in to SPIKE on Wednesday Night to watch this event.
