Just Hit Record on BT Sports

It will move to Sky Sports in due time. Sky knows the UFC will keep on growing plus Dana will go into boxing.

Same premium upgrade planned for the US in 2019 - Fox > ESPN
I worked for Sky and I asked this question at a meeting back in October, they're pretty much dictated to by the UK and MMA is still a fringe sport there, in short Sky are assholes so don't hold your breath on them picking up the UFC any time soon.

Yeah...but I can get he co and main free on a Sunday morning.

Really struggling to justify TV monthly sub services these days.

IIRC, Sky have a policy of bringing their own cameras and production to events; the UFC have a policy of only allowing their own feed to be shown.
 
and who owns espn in the uk?

BT Sport

Didn’t know that. Very relevant point.

I live in the Netherlands and Fox Sports will be airing the UFC even after the US deal ends at the end of the year. So, TV deals are different everywhere, but i can see ESPN pushing BT in this case.
 
Ill watch it live. I cant get the same buzz when I record.
