Elite xc VS UFC

On the night Elite XC makes it network television debut on CBS, Spike TV and the UFC will battle it out for ratings with a night-long broadcast schedule of Chuck Liddell programming.

EliteXC: PRIMETIME airs from 9-11 p.m. ET/PT, and Spike TV's Liddell special runs from 8-11 p.m. ET/PT.

CBS, will run its first "Saturday Night Fights" event featuring Kevin "Kimbo Slice" Ferguson and James Thompson headline the event, and EliteXC middleweight champ Robbie Lawler defends his title against Scott Smith.

Spike willshow a premiere of "Ultimate Iceman: Chuck Liddell," an hour-long documentary that chronicles the career of the UFC's former light heavyweight champion both in and out of the cage.

Spike TV will follow with a "Liddell vs. Silva: UFC Unleashed Special Edition" that includes Liddell's December 2007 main-event fight with Wanderlei Silva. It'll be the first time the UFC 79 fight airs on cable TV.

The night actually kicks off with "Ultimate Knockouts 4," which features Liddell's most memorable bouts.
