To gain as many viewers as possible the UFC would show UFC 105 via tape delay free on SpikeTV as a means to help promote the following weeks event. There has yet to be word on which members of the UFC's talent pool will partake in either event. However, if UFC 105 is in Manchester, England, it is likely British-fighter Michael Bisping will headline the card.
