    Re: UFC agrees to deal with FOX?

    Most of these fights are going to be on FX though, not Fox?

      FX will replace Spike with TUF and the Fight Nights appearing on this channel.

      Fox will replace Versus with 4 fights a year but the cards will be better.

        I see them pulling huge numbers for Saturdays which is all Fox wants. If they do 6 million thats a huge win for both the UFC and Fox. The schedule will probably be a card in January (the weekend in between the Championship game and the NFL), April (Avoiding May Sweeps), August (Avoiding Football) and December (Avoiding College Football).
        September on a Sunday.
        With a NFL lead-in while the animation block is still in repeats but before the MLB playoffs.

          Hmm, alright thanks. What will fuel get then?
          I hope FX starts airing UFC Unleashed's then.

            Thats a good spot for it also.

              Thats the one downside to this deal. I dont think we will see as much on air UFC content on FX. Most of that will be on Fuel. Unlike Spike, FX has a ton of movies, original series and other sports like college football. Where we would see things like UFC Unleashed marathons on Spike, I'm not sure we will see that on FX.

                Fuel can have Unleashed. I don't watch those anyway. I just hope they don't get any actual content like free prelims.

                  The prelims could be a problem during college football season in 2012. Most of FX's college football airs at 8.

                    Yeah, sadly. I don't have Fuel
                    I think they could replace certain movies because they replay them a lot.

                        The video isnt working for me. The changes to TUF are kind of crazy and am I the only one that thinks Cain v. JDS is going to be the first Fox event?

                        EDIT: Doesnt look like thats the case. Nov 12 in Anaheim is the first Fox card but Cain/JDS is Nov. 19 in San Jose. Who could be on the Fox card? Brock? They need someone big for the first broadcast TV card.

                          I think its nice that we are going to get some good MMA on Fox now but hate that Fuel is going to have the prelims since I dont get the channel at all.

                          EDIT- What are the changes to TUF? I must have missed this part of the press conference.

                            No changes to production and UFC will control it. Fuel will air the Pre and post show fights. Fight Nights go to FX.

                                So pissed about the prelims going to Fuel. ****ing Comcast doesnt get Fuel right now.
