    Back when UFC's deal with ESPN started, it was said that ESPN+ subscribers could get Fight Pass added on for an additional $5/month (instead of paying $10/month for FP by itself), but never heard anything else since around March.

    Has anyone heard any news about this, or have any other info? If I remember correctly, they were saying that we would be able to get both ESPN+ and Fight Pass together for just $9.99/month through the ESPN+ subscription.

    Remember this?

    It never existed. It was just a pipe dream.

    I read some article on the main page at the beginning of last year that said they looked into it, and found out ESPN wasn't ever going to set that up between ESPN+ and FP.

    Why get only $5 more out of clowns when you can get $5 multiple times.

    No, I actually canceled my Fight Pass account last month after they did that shitty update. I would probably add it back on for $5 through ESPN+ if that deal actually existed, but FP really sucks now. They ruined it.

    The layout was pretty bad before. I can't imagine what they did to make it worse. I guess I'll never know, cuz I really haven't missed it. I think they screwed themselves when they let ESPN have all their online content. There was really no compelling reason to keep FP after that.
