LATE UPDATE: A day after this was published, DirecTV changed course and decided not to offer Shine Fights on pay-per-view.
We have a weird weekend in mixed martial arts ahead of us, with two different pay-per-view shows even as the UFC is sitting the weekend out. But if you’re a DirecTV subscriber, you have only one fight card available to you: DirecTV is offering Friday night’s Shine Fights event, but not Saturday night’s Shark Fights show.
DirecTV has decided not to give its customers the chance to purchase the Shark Fights card, which is headlined by Keith Jardine vs. Trevor Prangley. Unsurprisingly, Shark Fights is disappointed.
