Are they listed on TheTVDB.com (http://www.thetvdb.com)?, if not then register and add them yourself, it is a wiki :;):
i tried to add a series for the ppv fights and they were deleted almost immediately. it specifies that "sports aren't allowed and will be deleted". i've already worked quite a bit to find all the images and make wide banners and resize everything to fit properly. any help would be greatly appreciated

Are there any similar sites that lists them? If not then it is not possible to make a scraper.

Try scanning with imdb. Not sure how well it will work, but they do have some stuff http://www.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=ufc+ppv&x=0&y=0
I would recommend this as a stop gap measure.

I was also looking for the same type of thing as mentioned by the original poster of this thread and have a quick question to ask.
Right now as it stands, I view my UFC fights in File View. I was wondering if lets say I was to use IMDB to scrape my UFC fights is it at all possible to perhaps have them scraped into another DB other than the one used for my Movies? I would love to keep my Movies seperate from the UFC stuff as I currently only have certain fights saved as clips and not the full PPV plus I dont want to mix the two together.
Anyhow, I thought I would ask if this is at all possible? Perhaps another DB to store miscellanous items but Im assuming this is outside of what is currently available in XBMC.
