was on dana white's twitter apparently.
Rumours have it channel 5 are tryin get rights, but if it goes back to bravo it cuts half of the interviews and shit off, just shows the fights. So dont want it go back to bravo.

If sky sports get their way they will keep hold of it.

Just hope dana white is more bothered bout making sure the UK fans get to watch it rather than being greedy and lettin it go box office!

Yeah i agree it has picked up in the UK, the fan base is so large now mainly down to it being easy to access it live being setanta and bravo.
Down side if sky get it and make it pay per view, its gonna lose alot of brittish fans, being £30 for 2 events a month is an expensive part.

IMO i really hope the likes of 5 get hold of it or virgin.

It more than likely will be streamed on the site again if they havnt come up with an agreement, the streaming was soo bad, the ammount of people tryin to access the same site all at once could cause it to crash.

Sky have already announced wanting to make it pay per view.

Update on UFC 101, is it is being televised on the new channel ESPN UK.....apparently taking straight over the setanta channels.
Not sure whether they will charge or not though.

ESPN UK launches august 3rd in time for ufc 101 on 8th.
Seriously cant wait especially with TITO! being announced that he's back!
