So, what's your opinions on the newest season of UFC Heavyweights? I think it's mostly crap that they would let Kimbo (the beard) Slice fight after all their crap saying how he wasn't a real fighter. I appreciate the "you have to work your way through the ranks of the UFC TV series first, but its crap. Either he is the type of fighter you want or he isn't. I say let him die his post internet fame death and be done with it.
Then again, who wouldn't like to see Kimbo Slice fight Brock Lesnar in the "who is the biggest douche bag" fight?

I think there are a lot of people who wanted to see how far Hendo could go. Your right about him personally not being a big draw. I think the majority of UFC fans are completely clueless about other MMA orgs. Hendo was basically the last big name from Prides's glory days. I really wanted to see him fight Anderson again, as he was probably the best match for him.
It's like you said, the champs have cleared out their divisions which is great but the problem is the lack of new up and coming talent. A great example of what I think the UFC is lacking is exactly what recently happened in the WEC.
For the longest time Faber was the undisputed king of the featherweight division. He was only 2 fights away from clearing the whole division but them lost 2 time in a row to the new King, Brown. Now suddenly there is an almost unknown who comes in a easily beats Brown like it's nothing. The Brown/Aldo fight was great, Aldo completely dominated Brown, not by skill or Power but sheer unmatched violence. Aldo who is only 23 now has 6 knockouts in a row and easily walked thru Brown, who many thought would be top dog for a long time.
The UFC needs something like that to get people's interest up, I just don't see it happening. Most of the recent UFC main cards fights have been overshadowed by undercard or pre-lim fights.
