The UFC has been filming their contests in HD for several years now and Dana White has been a big proponent of HD broadcasts when possible. So it was only a matter of time before they started releasing content in HD. Well, it looks like they have chosen to start with HD DVD. Excellent news for fight fans as MMA is definately a sport that benefits from increased definition.

Please note, the UFC's publisher is format neutral, so this is not a thread proclaiming a content win for HD DVD. This is just a thread from an MMA fan happy to see UFC come home on any HD format.

You know, I never thought to do that with this title, but I will now. Thanks for the reminder. I watched a few fights on the 360 marketplace in HD and they looked good, should be even better on disc.

I posted a thread for this back when it was first announced and for some reason, it was merged with the "New & Improved! AVS Master List of HD-DVD Releases!"

Just recieved an email from Amazon today saying that my UFC: The Best Of 2007 preorder has been canceled and the listing has been pulled.

It has also been pulled at DVDEmpire and First Look Studios' website.

Does anybody know anymore about what's going on? I was really looking forward to this.
