Yeah, I've noticed that they will try to stack up the card when the main event can't sell the card by itself, but when they have a potential huge superfight, then they usually don't really fill out the event much at all. They try to save all the good 2nd-tier fights for the PPV events that need them to sell.
This backfired badly on Zuffa when Cain had to pull out of the Mexico City PPV last year, then the card really had nothing else to fall back on and no reason to watch it, so they had to cobble together some interim championship fight to drum up any interest at all.
At least this time around we have a very good fight to back up the main event, Cowboy and Jury could easily headline any Fight Night even on FOX, and its a worthy PPV co-main.
