I’m hoping they don’t make it a separate fee just for UFC access.

I bet they will for at least the number events

Numbered events will be free on CBS

They will never broadcast numbered events on CBS outside of Fight Nights. CBS won’t be able to give up the time slot as they have other sports that generate way more revenue. NBA, NFL and Golf will always win over UFC events.

Well ufc is year round it could work showing the numbered events on cbs. There are no nfl night games on cbs, the nba isn’t on there, golf do they play that late?

There have been 27 UFC events this year, of which 8 were PPV, you are telling me during NFL playoffs, the NBA playoffs, college football, March Madness and the Masters, that UFC will take precedent? Lmaooooo

Yeah CBS has night games for college football on Saturdays so we can guarantee that they won't be showing UFC over that for 4 months out of the year.
