I was just checking out TUF nations on Fight Pass and saw that under the header for Edgar vs Penn it say "Buy Season Pass". I walked through as if I was going to buy it and it's an additional $21.99. Isn't the show going to air on Cable anyway? Seems a bit greedy.
I've been defending Fight Pass as a good value at $9.99/mo., so this kinda sucks.
Bullshit if true. 
They need to make a universal fight pass that caters to people that don't sit in their home country year round, that includes everything. Until then I will be forced to stream illegally.
greedy of them if true
It airs on TV though
Fox owns it. 
SpicyTaco20 - It airs on TV though
Ironically, I recently got rid of DirecTV.

...on second thought, that's more coincidence than irony.
Cory Davis - Fox owns it.Yep, this. I'm sure this deal was signed with FOX quite some time ago so they are probably limited on how the can distribute it.
It's on Fight Pass II and you can have this for an a low, additional $7.99/ month.
They're distributing it the same way as the other 18 seasons, just charging extra for this one. I suppose it's possible that Fox is charging them, but I think they're just banking on BJ's popularity. Admittedly, I could be wrong.
RampageFitsLikeAGlove - It's on Fight Pass II and you can have this for an a low, additional $7.99/ month.
Maybe I'll wait until next year when it rolls down to Fight Pass 3 for $6.99.

Ya well keep in mind you will have to subscribe to Fight Pass I and II in order to access the link for III. Not sure on the price yet so I'll wait for the shills to tell me if it's a good deal or not.
This fight pass is a complete cluster fuck.
So far, since the launce of "Fight Pass," I have seen far more reasons why not to subscribe, than details that would motivate me to subscribe to it. Do I want to see TUF: Brazil with Chael & Wandy? Of course. However, I can't personally justify subscribing to UFC Fight Pass just to see a season of TUF: Brazil.
But then, I see thread after thread of people having issues with Fight Pass during a live streaming event. The WWE Network streamed a live event to millions of subscribers worldwide, with no issues- and UFC Fight Pass seemed to struggle with streaming an event to (maybe) 100K people? That was totally disheartening to me.
Hearing the news OP posted is even more thoroughly disengaging... that's a pretty hefty price for 'extra content,' in my opinion.
I'd never rule it out, and I'm waiting for them to work out the kinks... but at the moment, I don't feel compelled to subscribe to UFC Fight Pass. From the majority of things I've read, and the amount of "Fight Pass Problems" and "Cancelling Fight Pass" threads posted on a seemingly daily basis, I cannot justify purchasing it at this time.
And if what the OP just posted is indeed true, that's pushing me a little further away. I can only hope that things will get better- because, if done right, Fight Pass could be a gold mine. Just my opinion. Thanks for reading.
What would be awesome is a deal for like 50 per month with fightpass, a ppv, and all the fox/fs1 cards. I would totally cancel my cable

I'd love to be wrong, but looks like it's an extra $21.99- one time fee.
To be fair, I've never had an issue with a live stream on fight pass, they've all been stable and high def.
Cory Davis - Fox owns it.
Looks like someone in here actually knows what they are talking about.

Does FOX own all of the TUF shows? I heard that even for US subscribers, they had to pay this fee to "unlock" TUF Nations season, despite us not getting it here.

I'm in the US and was able to watch TUF Nations with no additional fee. Just got done with Episode 8.
