I'm really looking forward to this actually. This card is better than UFC 260

Neiman Gracie ftw

Awesome card, was looking forward to Berkhamov's fight the most...Oh well, I hope they will reschedule him quickly

I guess Canada still has no tv deal since it's not announced. I will just use my vpn and watch on their YouTube channel like always. I do have IPTV for Showtime.

 

[Bubzeh]

Times the UK start time?

To my calculations it’s 3am? Well FML.

I guess Canada still has no tv deal since it's not announced. I will just use my vpn and watch on their YouTube channel like always. I do have IPTV for Showtime/Sky Sports but vpn works just as good.

Will it not stream on YouTube in Canada, do you have to pay for VPN?

There are free VPN's out there - couldn't recommend any though.

I am not sure if we are not geoblocked as Paramount network had us geoblocked but I will see tonight. I do set my VPN to France and works fine for past events. Yes I do pay for my VPN's. I have multiple.

It is on BBC iPlayer for anyone in the UK.
