News LFA gone from UFC Fight Pass

[STAY GOLD]

So pretty much every promotion aside from LFA has denied they’re leaving fight pass, apparently

Basically. Guess we all got caught up in the hysteria caused by "UFC Fight Pass is shutting down in Central and South America."

LFA moving to ViceTv

I wonder what would they do regarding Brazil, since they were making a good investment here (we have no Vice)

LFA moving to ViceTv

I predicted this. It looks like Vice has been adding a lot of combat sports for the last couple of years. Those "Dark Side of the Cage" shows must be getting a lot of views.

Is there anywhere we can find information on what changes will happen in different regions? I'm from UK but work in Eastern Europe so don't know if I should cancel fightpass. I get a great deal at the moment, hoping it stays as it is.

Vice is a Canadian channel with not a lot of reach. I don’t think PFL is getting any money from them and this LFA deal I don’t think they are getting a lot of money if any, and maybe more of a production, split sponsorship deal.

Vice TV is actually an American cable channel based in NY and as far as I can tell it isn't available in Canada.

I have Vice on my Fios package so I'm good with it. Dont have Fight Pass anymore so good with me. I watch the wrestling and mma beyond the ring shows on there which are pretty good. Think they also signed some sort of bare knuckle shit but not BKFC whatever the other one is.

Dont know if this is a step up for them in terms of money or exposure but think they just didnt want to give UFC whatever rights they were asking for to stay on Fight Pass. I guess it was over UFC owning the footage or something. Seems like they are still cool with UFC and fighters will continue to be signed as a feeder league etc.

Eh, canceling Fight Pass over LFA would be silly. Still good enough value with the fight library and the other regional promotions

Sorry, I must have worded that poorly. I rarely watch LFA at all, but thought that the UFC library and some of the other promotions were being removed. I may be wrong.

Its 100% good value for me right now. No idea if this changes or if UFC on their new platform will be available where I am.
