Does anybody feel that the UFC is quickly switching to a TV-based model and not supporting their PPVs enough?
Their buys are down, but their TV viewership is pretty good. I'm guessing the FOX deal is a pretty good moneymaker and stable, while it's hard to get people to pay for fights unless it's a really good one.
My guess is that the UFC is trying to become a more stable sports organization, rather than a PPV based one like Boxing. I agree with the move, but I am still a fan of big fights that you have to pay to see.
But then again, getting free fights every week keeps me watching. But can the public stand watching fights every week?
Is it an overload of content?
