Default UFC - Where can I watch it??

Now that those useless muppets at Setanta have gone **** up is anyone else going to screen the UFC fights in the UK.

Bravo used to show the events (albeit 1 day after) but I could live with that as it was free

Virgin1 have been showing TUF but don't appear to show live events.

If not, anywhere I can watch online, would obviously prefer not having to cough up PPV fees.

There's usually plenty on torrents shortly after the event.

Got someone in the know at Bravo, just waiting to find out if they are going for it, as they have just bought into BAMMA (British Assoc Mixed Martial Arts)
As mentioned, plenty on torrents, but it is nice to stay up to watch sometimes, especially UFC 100.

If Bravo get the rights I really hope its as good as Setanta's coverage, and they don't go back to the old ways ie watching ufc events via tape delay on a sunday night.

Never worked out how to use torrents and all of those type sites.

Ideally want to see UFC 100 on t.v. as it's got a great fight card.

Crossing everything that Bravo get involved again as no nasty PPV fees hopefully.

I'm surprised sky sports don't chuck their cap in as they do occasionally show some of the lesser MMA series. That said, they'd probably charge £15-20 per event so let's hope they don't!

I think it'll be either Bravo or Sky Sports. They were goingt o show UFC99 on Bravo if ti went **** up before the event.

Can't wait for UFC100 though!

Lesnar isn't fighting now so I've read. He can't make weight apparently.

They've asked matee to replace him

the card is awesome!

Anyone see sanchez vs guida on sunday! What a fight!

Diego Sanchez -v- Clay Guida was an awesome fight.

Clay Guida is an absolute beast, I also think he looks like one, that silly mop of hair must obscure his vision though. Never seen anyone take a beating like that and still manage to continue. I'm suprised that head kick didn't knock his head clean off his neck/shoulders

Thought Diego's standup game was incredible, was throwing great combos especially the upercuts, I think any other fighter would have been down and out after the first 20 seconds!

As far as I know it's going to be bravo, My bro is in Vegas watching it at the moment, but he said there are that many people/channels filming it's insane.
Your best bet is probably a download. Most people will be devoted enough to get something up there to share.
