What a stupid fuck. Wow
-
Man pride was so good. So many top fighters at the top of their games. Plus the whole production of the events was amazing. The female announcer always made me smile. Plus Bas's commentary was always amazing.
-
Face off between Aldo and Macgregor today was INSANE

@flannel-slut Agreed. Tom is the man. Hope they make it happen, or that the division just moves on without Jon....
-
Jones, love him or hate him, is pretty undeniable. Unreal fight IQ, even if his personality traits have always been questionable (along with the doping controversy). Has to fight Tom next, there's no way he can't dodge that and Dana White knows this too. Alex P isn't an option for him.

Massive UFC broadcasting announcement this morning. Moving to Paramount+ and ditching the PPV model. Everything will be broadcast on Paramount with a small monthly subscription and also many fights live on CBS. I am a massive UFC fan, but I really dislike the expensive PPV's.
I also hope they address the late start PPV start times (for the U.S. based viewer). Most events start at 9PM and end around midnight. That means the marquee fights are at 11PM and close to midnight (for the east coast that's 1AM). I'm hoping with this new broadcast deal they move them up a couple hours.

@jordanscollected that’s really cool news. I always wished they had a package like the nfl where you could get all the ppvs for a yearly or monthly price. Also when I lived in Vegas the fight times were awesome but now that I’m on the east coast and older I can’t make it to the main event without falling asleep haha
-
Late starts? You should try being in the UK staying up till 6am in the morning haha
Even when we got a UK UFC event, uncle Dana still pencils it in for a 3am main card start.
Anyways, curious to know how this impacts us over here. Does the coverage shift from TNT to Paramount in 2026?

Started following UFC late last years after the Aspinall eye poke infiltrated my algorithm. Gone down the rabbit hole big time since then..
For those interested, who's your money on for the Interim LW fight at 324?
I watched all of Gaethje's previous fights over the weekend, and damn he's gonna be a problem based on what I've seen from Paddy...

@worn2fade Yeah I plan on staying up watching, although just heard Moreno's fight is cancelled (?)
I aint watched UFC live in a hot minute as it destroys my routine the next day, as I'm in the UK haha
-
Actually looks like it was swapped out at the start of the month, I'm looking forward to Moreno's fight though
-
@Jord appears to be still on from what I can see. But dang dude, being in the UK must make it rough to watch them. Since it’s now on paramount I’d just watch it whenever is best for you and avoid any social media that can spoil it lol. They record and keep all fights which is pretty awesome.
-
@worn2fade Yeah it sucks sometimes, I normally wake up to watch them in the morning. Sometimes they're on early if they're in Abu Dhabi but you're right the paramount switch has been really nice.
)and i cant help but wonder what would have happened if Wanderlei beat Arona …... WANDERLEI VS SHOGUN would have been unreal
