The UFC is now selling its pay-per-view events online for the first time, and as part of Saturday's UFC 100 event, anyone who makes a purchase on UFC.com will also receive access to the otherwise-un-aired six-fight preliminary card.

UFC 100 takes place this Saturday, July 11, at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

To gain access to the preliminary fights, purchases ($44.95 per event) must be made by 10 PM ET (7 PM PT) this Friday, July 10.

UFC 100 is one of the deepest cards in UFC history with three main-event-worthy bouts, including UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar vs. interim title-holder Frank Mir, UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre vs. top contender Thiago Alves, and Michael Bisping vs. fellow coach on "The Ultimate Fighter 9" Dan Henderson.

Prior to UFC 100, Yahoo! Sports was the sole provider of UFC pay-per-view events online.

The UFC didn't clarify whether buyers who qualify for the special will get live access to the preliminary card or whether they'll be able to watch the events after the live main-card portion of the card.

The UFC 100 preliminary card features Mark Coleman vs. Stephan Bonnar, Mac Danzig vs. Jim Miller, Jon Jones vs. Jake O'Brien and other matchups.

One longtime complaint about the UFC's hefty PPV price tags (both online and through traditional cable platforms) is that preliminary-card fights aren't part of the purchase. But for at least one night, it seems, fans will get what they want.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship will likely host two major events in November. One on Spike TV and one on pay-per-view on back-to-back weekends.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission recently updated its online calendar, showing the UFC had formally requested a November 21 event date at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.

Additionally, multiple sources have told the Vegas event, UFC 106, will likely follow a November 14 UFC 105 event, a show expected to take place in the UK, possibly Manchester, that would air on Spike TV.

UFC 105 would air on free basic cable and help promote the following week's pay-per-view offering.

No fights rumored of official are set for either card, though UFC 105 will likely be heavy on European talent and could feature in the main event British fighter Michael Bisping as well as recent The Ultimate Fighter 9 winners Ross Pearson and James Wilks. Bisping is slated to fight Dan Henderson next month at UFC 100. UFC President Dana White has hinted that Bisping could earn a title shot with current champion Anderson Silva if he defeats Henderson.

Although far from official, a Silva vs. Bisping UFC 105 headliner on basic cable could surely be a ratings hit and be a major draw for UK fans.

The back-to-back November cards would then be followed just two weeks later by The Ultimate Fighter 10 Finale, which concludes the currently in-production heavyweights-only season of the UFC's reality series. TUF 10 features notables such as Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson and Roy Nelson and NFL veteran Marcus Jones, and the finale takes place in Las Vegas at The Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort on December 5.

Former UFC Middleweight Champion Rich Franklin will train with current UFC middleweight title holder Anderson "The Spider" Silva for his UFC 99 195-pound catchweight headliner against Wanderlei "The Axe Murderer" Silva, according to the Dayton Daily News.

Anderson Silva has defeated Franklin twice inside the Octagon, first at UFC 64 in October 2006 to capture the UFC middleweight title, which he has yet to relinquish, and again at UFC 77 in October 2007.

According to the report, which cited sources close to Anderson while Franklin's manager declined to comment, Franklin will spend some time away from his traditional camp with Matt Hume in Seattle to train with Anderson in California.

After failing to get past Anderson in two attempts, Franklin moved up to the light heavyweight division, where he defeated Matt Hamill in his 205-pound debut before falling to Dan Henderson in the UFC 93 main event in January. Meanwhile, losses in four of his last five fights at light heavyweight have sent Wanderlei packing for the middleweight division. The UFC 99 headliner will be Wanderlei's first test at shedding weight, and he'll face another stiff test in Franklin, who has lost just three times in eleven UFC bouts and held the middleweight belt for more than a year.

The move is likely to further the recent tension between Anderson and Wanderlei and could lead to a matchup between the pair later this year, particularly if Wanderlei is victorious in the UFC 99 main event.

Spike TV will join in the celebrations surrounding July's historic UFC 100 event.

The UFC's cable broadcast partner will debut a five-part series entitled "UFC's Ultimate 100: Greatest Fights" prior to UFC 100, which takes place July 11 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Fans can begin voting on the top 100 UFC fights of all time on May 1 at Ultimate100.spike.com, and highlights from the chosen bouts will air on the series, which debuts July 5.

That first episode airs at 9 PM ET/PT on Sunday. Subsequent episodes air in the same timeslot on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. Prior to Saturday's series finale, Spike TV will re-air the other four episodes.

The UFC this week announced three official bouts for UFC 100, which is becoming the can't-miss event of 2009. UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar takes on UFC interim heavyweight title holder Frank Mir (in a heavyweight title unification bout) and UFC Welterweight Champion Georges St. Pierre meets top contender Thiago Alves. Additionally, "The Ultimate Fighter 9" coaches Michael Bisping and Dan Henderson are also slated to fight at the event, and as revealed on this past Wednesday's episode "The Ultimate Fighter 9", Stephan Bonnar will take on Mark Coleman.

Anchored by a middleweight bout between Michael "The Count" Bisping and Chris "The Crippler" Leben, UFC 89 on Saturday drew an average of 2.6 million viewers, according to Spike TV representatives. The telecast -- which aired on tape delay from the National Indoor Arena (NIA) in Birmingham, England -- peaked with 3.4 million viewers during the 11:30 PM to 11:45 PM quarter hour.

Despite stiff competition from Game 6 of the American League Championship Series on TBS and regional college football coverage on ESPN and ESPN2, the UFC 89 telecast ranked second with 18 to 49 year-old males, 18 to 34 year-old males and 25 to 34 year-old males among ad-supported cable for its time period.

Bisping (17-1) defeated Leben by unanimous decision in a competitive main event, as the UFC made its final stop in the United Kingdom this year. The popular 29 year-old Brit extended his winning streak to three fights and continued his rapid ascent up the 185-pound ladder. Scheduled to coach on the ninth season of "The Ultimate Fighter" reality series, Bisping will face the winner of the UFC 93 match pairing Rich Franklin with Dan Henderson sometime in 2009.

In the co-main event at UFC 89, light heavyweight contender Keith "The Dean of Mean" Jardine eked out a split decision win over the suddenly enigmatic Brandon "The Truth" Vera. The event also featured a memorable welterweight slugfest between Chris Lytle and Paul Taylor, which earned both men a $40,000 "Fight of the Night" bonus. Lytle won by unanimous decision.

Despite its success, UFC 89 fell short of the mark set by UFC 75 "Champion vs Champion", which also aired on tape delay on Spike TV in September 2007. That event, which showcased a light heavyweight championship bout between Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Dan Henderson, drew 4.7 million viewers, making it, at the time, the most-watched mixed martial arts event in North American history.
