    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Just prior to UFC 81, the UFC increased the price of its stand-definition pay-per-view broadcasts from $39.95 to $44.95. Although a small number of additional buys will trickle in (cable systems have a taped version of the broadcast available for purchase), Meltzer reports that the event will be third-highest-grossing event in UFC history behind only December 2006's UFC 66 event (Chuck Liddell vs. Tito Ortiz II) and July 2006's UFC 61 event (Tito Ortiz vs. Ken Shamrock II).</div>

    Looks like Brock earned his quarter-million.
