How much live UFC do you watch?

[aerius]

I still watch almost every event but end up skipping at least half the fights on each card.

Live. Watch em all if I'm home. Prelims were great last year. Some smoke break fights here and there. My wife is a big fan of MMA so we watch together most of the time.

 

[Tugboat]

A lot more now that it's on paramount. I've been way too cheap to buy ppv for years.

 

[Frank_Drebin]

All of it

No need to be jealous

Used to be all, the last year or 2 I'm skipping more and more cards, especially apex cards. I've been watching more ONE, some BKFC, and a little KOTS.

 

[Danespina]

only clips/gifs of finishes

You and everyone who liked this post are the ones that the people who actually watched are having debates with.

Haven't watched a card in years now. Maybe 3 or 4?

99% of them I watch live. I did miss the FN card last weekend. It's a troubling situation for me, bc I do love watching fights, and I think the PBPs make the experience more enjoyable, they're a lot of fun. But...I genuinely hate the UFC. The fighters themselves are fine, I respect anyone who gets in there, but the people who run that company don't know what they're doing, aside from making money, and I feel conflicted by supporting them in any way. They're supposed to be facilitating a sport, in earnest, and they simply don't. Ultimate Fucking Clownshow

Canada doesn’t have it on paramount and I don’t care enough to pirate it anymore so not nearly as much as I use to. I watch other orgs far more though.

Same boat here, I've been loving ONE. I'm surprised it's not more popular on here. Muay Thai with MMA gloves is amazing.

I started watching ONE when several of the fighters I follow like Sam-A and Sagetdao started fighting there after retiring from the Thai stadium scene. Been a fan ever since. Their MMA is pretty good too in the lighter weight divisions, legal knees to the head of a grounded fighter makes everything so much better.

I watch six days, actually six days a week. Five days a week, I'll watch three days a week. One of those days I will watch two days of the week. So, six days a week I will be watching

Basically all of it , sometimes I miss some prelims and don’t go back to watch them the next day

From UFC 40 onwards I've watched every numbered event live. Only ever had 2 close calls on missing an event.

Regular events I watched most of the main cards during the spike and fox era but cut down during the ESPN era. Even the worst cards I'll still catch the co main and main event.

 

[Wormwood]

Not as much as I used to, but there are a lot more cards on nowadays. I still read this forum as much as when I discovered it decades ago though .

 

[dipstickjimmy]

Pretty much just main cards these days, and even then the quality is patchy most of the time.

No they actually let Patchy go.

I watch everything live. If I have plans and am out I'll watch few of the best fights from the card and the gifs of finishes. I try not to plan anything for PPV nights but shit comes up. Probably watching 80% or more live.

 

[Ozze]

Most of the PPVs (don't usually watch the first fights, speed through the prelims because I start to watch about when the main card starts), watch some fight nights depending on the card.

Since UFC here is mostly between 11pm and 3am there's no other sport to compete with it.

I watch F1 live (quali and races) and some soccer.

I live in Europe nowadays, which means that I practically only watch european, middle eastern and asian events. The American (North and South) are most of the time way too late. Like prelims starting at 1 or 2am is just too late.

However, I am like at least 30 weekends per year somewhere traveling for fun and fishing, which then means that I often also have no time to watch those.

I would say its like 5-6 per year, max. The rest only clips or certain fights if I can arrange to watch them first in the morning before reading any news.
