Fight pass : Ireland/ uk - what does it mean ?

All of this is only going to encourage illegal steaming/downloading more.

The UFC are taking one hell of a gamble. Phone Post 3.0

B.T. deal needs a bit of clarification then but that's really poor if the UK shows are not broadcast at least we won't have to sit through that terrible studio segments. Interesting to see how this works out the digital network is a great idea but it's going to hard sell to casual fans. Phone Post 3.0

Do they honestly expect us to pay for the privilege of staying up all night to stream fights online?

I have bought one card when I was out of the country to watch online through UFC.TV . It was Silva Weidman 1. I logged in at the start of the whole card and for some reason it showed the flipping knockout at the end of the last fight.

Put me off ever watching online again. Phone Post 3.0

The other thing is in the UK a lot of the country does not have high speed fibre broadband needed for streaming an HD feed smoothly which would really put me off as i live in the Highlands. I believe even at the upgraded exchanges you have to be within a certain distance my shitty connection ain't going to like that. Phone Post 3.0

^^^ A bit of info here. Fight Pass isn't even available here until March so UK fans won't get the 2 month free trial that the rest of the world gets.

Does anyone know if Fight Pass will be viewable on an iPad? I'm guessing not but hoping I'm wrong....

I see the card is £6.99 on UFC .TV. Phone Post 3.0

As far as im aware the card starts at 11:30am then the main card on at 2pm.. I think it will be free via ufc.tv or ufc.com.. Phone Post 3.0

UK not getting free fight pass trial Phone Post 3.0
Wtf is this bullshit. Why the fuck aren't we getting it free like every other country for 2 months? This cards good timing, but why would I pay through the nose to see substandard cards at silly o'clock in the morning. I'll still watch the events. I won't be paying Phone Post 3.0

Because according to the UFC, "fight pass" isn't set up for the european market yet, so we have to wait,whilst the US etc gets it now,for free
VU for knowledge. I still feel cheated to be fair. I don't want to have to pay for cards every month that was supposed to be covered by the BT deal from summer. Phone Post 3.0

From the twitter of Simon Head from within BT Sport:

"We have rights to everything that's shown on US TV and Singapore isn't being shown in the States."

Also stated that he is not sure about the London card yet.

This is turning into a right cluster fuck.BT stated they had the rights to all UFC events on their advertising. Fuck them and Zuffa, I've a good mind to stop subscribing and just torrent the fucking events. We should all be phoning BT in the morning. Phone Post 3.0

I live in Spain and there is no legal way for me to watch the event on Saturday at all.

U don't get UFC.tv in Spain? Phone Post 3.0

Yes, normally all the fight night and FOX cards are free on ufc.tv, but for some reason this event is completely blacked out.

The Singapore event is being shown at 9.00pm tomorrow on BT Sports . Phone Post 3.0

Yeah. They have changed back to showing it. Good news but what are they up to! V confusing. Phone Post 3.0
