I fear it will stay on espn/BT sports,I'd like it to go to five... I don't mind ten pounds a month but I'm not subscribing to sky/BT on top
Wouldn't be surprised if it's the new BT Sport, although there's no doubt that the UFC would like to be on Sky Sports. The impact on casual recognition from being regularly on Sky Sports News can't be underestimated.
Gary Cook said that he thinks the UFC only have about 10-15% casual recognition, meaning that only 15% max of the UK population even realise what/who they are. SSN would have a huge impact on that.
Can someone confirm if I'm right here?
Looking at it the Facebook fights start at 4pm and after the early weigh in's there are going to be some good fights!
And then the main event is shown on ESPN on tape delay at 9pm?
I can't confirm it but I would imagine that is the case as there's not enough prelims for 5hrs, its probably so it fits into the ESPN schedule better.
Found this made by MTV,The rise of Conor Mcgregor which is a pretty interesting watch for those who know little about him.
His coach John Kavanagh also has a training blog from this week in Sweden, think it's on YouTube.
Having SSN coverage would be horrible as i'd have to stay away until I had watched the previous nights event
I doubt it would get much sky sports news coverage even it was picked up from sky, they barely have boxing coverage.
Plus I can hardly think they would show highlights of "cage fighting" during the watershed...
Agree I'm glad it's easy to avoid the results
I can't see any channel doing this tbh
Anyone know if the Invicta show will be available to view online any time?I don't know anything about their set-up but it sounds like it was a good event.
