No Mas TV Guide - 4/5
MUST SEE NO MAS TV
UFC Unleashed
Spike, 6 p.m.

Consider this the appetizer to an insane night on Spike. An amazing two-hour show showcasing some of the best fights of 2006: Georges St. Pierre's masterful title win over Matt Hughes, Chuck Liddell vs. Renato Babalu Sobral, Keith Jardine vs. Forrest Griffin, Diego Sanchez vs. Joe Riggs and arguably the biggest fight in UFC history: Tito Ortiz vs. Chuck Liddell II. If you tune into one MMA show all year let this be it.
BEST OF THE REST
The Hurricane
USA, 1 p.m.
Pure fiction, but entertaining nonetheless. The film is so inaccurate about so many things that it's hard to draw any real connection whatsoever between it and the historical Hurricane Carter. That said, I saw this thing in the theater and had a rollicking Hollywood-style good time.
The Masters
USA, 4 p.m. (replayed at 8 p.m.)
First-round coverage begins at 4. Always fun to see what nobody tops the day one leaderboard.
Pat and Mike
TCM, 6:15 p.m.
A forgotten 1952 Hepburn and Tracy vehicle in which Kate plays a brilliant women athlete who takes on rumpled and ruthless promoter Mike Conovan (Tracy) to guide her career. Evidently, Hepburn regularly shot in the 80's - looks like she can handle a club in that picture over there. A lot of athletes make cameos in Pat and Mike, including Don Budge and Babe Didrikson Zaharias.
UFC Ultimate Fight Night Live
Spike, 8 p.m.
Primi Piatti. Live from the Palms in Las Vegas: Dokonjonsuke Mishima vs. Kenny Florian, Justin McCully vs. Antoni Hardonk and Melvin Guillard vs. Joe Stevenson
The Ultimate Fighter 5
Spike, 10 p.m.
Secondi Piatti. The season premiere of the best reality show on television (according to the Franchise, at least). 16 Lightweight fighters live and train with each other while embarking on a tournament to win a UFC contract. Think a MUCH better version of "The Contender." Supposedly, this is the most intense season ever.
TNA iMPACT!
Spike, 11 p.m.
Dolce. The Latin American Xchange take on the Voodoo Kin Mafia. Also, in an 8 Mile Street Fight, Rhino goes up against Tomko.
