All UFC content removed from ESPN+

[Tweak896]

All the UFC content has been removed from ESPN+. Do you think that means a deal has been signed?



I'm cautiously optimistic, either we are going to get another 5+ years of the shit we've seen from ESPN or maybe Netflix or whoever won the rights cracks the whip on quality of cards like Saudi Arabia did for that one card. Seems as though the ESPN era is over for now...

Edit: Not everything, just the backlog.

I actually wish for no deal having being made and that the streaming services are low-balling them or trying to get smaller packages. Not because I root against them, but to bring some pressure so they can put a real effort to promote good cards instead of the long lone of apex cards they're doing

I really hope so. I'll be so happy to cancel that shitty app and service.

Didn’t Netflix say they actually WERENT interested in the UFC?

Maybe I’m wrong?

Definitely could be true, UFC on Netflix would be dope, wouldn’t feel like I’m just throwing $$$ away every month lol.

UFC fight library vanishes from ESPN platforms in the middle of billion-dollar negotiations

Nearly every UFC event from UFC 308 and prior has been completely scrubbed from both their mobile app and desktop website.

Netflix already has WWE, wouldnt surprise me too much if they go there, but the thing is, again PPV´s behind an already kind of expensive pay wall?

 

[Shaolin Alan]

UFC streaming on Disney+
(More WMMA. Especially the ugly chicks)

 

[treelo]

why are people blaming ESPN for shitty cards, i think your anger is mistargeted here

 

[fedorthegoat777]

ESPN deal was garbage.
I actually would buy fights. When I tried, I had to sign up for a subscription service to something I don't want.

Not happening.

Should be able to do a one / off, since they only have a few cards per year worth buying anyways.

I believe they said they are only interested in big one off fights like Tyson vs Paul.
