I got to meet Roxanne Modafferi at my local Walmart!

So did everyone else that walked by the entrance for 8 hours that day

 

[gosuasus]

Paramount lmao? Nobody is gonna watch that shit. UFC is dying.

 

[gracie_barra_samurai]

7.7 billion but the fighters will probably start getting paid less lmao.

 

[Uber_Noober]

The proof is in the goof

Didn't know he's still a fighter.

Dana always comes out on top.

Since Paramount owns Nickelodeon, does this mean they'll have UFC on that channel? If so, everyone who loses a fight should get slimed.

 

[jeskola]

This needs background watermarks of Fox, ABC, ESPN+, Fuel TV, PPV, etc

Paramount is growing. They just merged with Skydance and a lot of top management is being shuffled. This is a pretty huge win for them.

Maybe Ill have to resubscribe to Paramount Plus after this.

I like all the old reality show type shits they’ve aged well. Nickelodeon.

Sounds like a big deal. I'll continue to watch illegally.

The pirate streams usually look like shit, have bad frame rate, compressed sound. Paramount plus is low priced, think most will just abandon pirating and get a sub. Some of the big numbered UFC events will also be completely free on CBS channel.

This is huge for UFC they literally beat pirating and making Bank

 

[Lycandroid]

lol a people who never paid for PPV complaining about it going away.

 

[Mesos]

I liked both Spike and Fox. ESPN, not so much. Hopefully, Paramount will be at least as good as the first two media platforms. Quite optimistic about the post-PPV era.

Spike and Fox were great. Espn was too uptight, and cleaned up. They do that to alot of their sports broadcasts. Hopefully Paramount is more laid back, and lets UFC do what they want.

 

[MitMcl]

Mind blowing how anybody could complain about this. This is easily the cheapest and easiest it’s ever been to watch UFC.

 

[HockeyBjj]

UFC "PPVs" over the air on a major network will be so good for exposure

Should have happened years ago

These fighters can now expect 60$ off reebok coupons instead of 50.
