Most Watched Live TV fights in U.S. MMA and a Look at Strikeforce on CBS

When Ivan Trembow isn't doing his thing heading up the highly respected Independent World MMA Rankings (and as a member of the committee my opinion would never be swayed), he's apparently holed up in the back of a library somewhere knee deep in research. He has two great articles up at his blog. One focuses on the most watched individual fights on live event broadcasts in U.S. MMA history. The now defunct Elite XC has six of the top ten. The other article looks at the minute by minute ratings for Strikeforce's inaugural effort on CBS.

They're definitely worth the read.
