pjbear05 Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Worthless jag offs at WSVN, the Miami Fox Network affiliate, have a nasty habit of showing chit local programming like news, Inside Edition, and other dumb chit, instead of the UFC Fight Night Prelims. Now I have to channel surf to find an alternative like Fox On Demand. Fork that, these guys and gals may be cans, but I'm looking for a fight! Anybody else having these problems with the dumb azz local Fox station? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad the UFC is going to ESPN. Fox sucks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the streaming events won’t have that problem, but the TV events aren’t going to be any different on ESPN. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes a lot of sense to me it wouldn't be any different but do you have a source or you just going on educated guess there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No source just his opinion. ESPN is actually a legit 24/7 sports network. Its not far fetched to think they'll take UFC programming more seriously than Fox did. I mean truck racing ffs...

Especially for as little regard for MMA as they've shown in the past. They'll probably have more coverage but i doubt it will be much more.

I've seen them do it for other sports. They will piss people off if they cut off a game or race that someone has been watching for hours unless its a blow out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, non-sports networks do it when they’re airing sports with the programming that airs afterwards. If they’re showing live sports programming that runs long, they’re not going to cut it off before it ends to go to something else, no matter what is coming up next. The UFC airs on essentially the Canadian version of ESPN up here and the same thing has happened here too. Now, maybe ESPN won’t schedule live programming right before UFC as often as FS1 does, but in situations where they do, don’t expect them to cut away when it’s time for the UFC to start if it runs late. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-idyb- Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) i cant wait until they finally put a decent title fight headliner on fox or espn and right at the start of the fight it cuts to like a poker game or some horse racing or mens tennis, because for some odd reason they thought that a main card with a 5 round fight and 4 or 5 other fights would only be 2 hours so thats the most they allotted for it.

Mcmax3000 Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Well there you go. My understanding is that ESPN carries a lot of college football, which is normally in Saturdays, the same day as UFC, so I wouldn’t necessarily count on that.
