MMAjunkie.com confirmed today that Spike TV would not be carrying any prelim bouts from the event, leaving fans outside of Britain in the cold at the moment.

In the past the UFC has used other broadcast services to bring fans preliminary bouts from past events. Just last weekend the promotion streamed four prelim bouts via it’s Facebook page for UFC Fight for the Troops 2 and aired a couple of fights on ION Television for UFC 125.

Fans shouldn’t worry though, the UFC should announce a broadcast carrier for the rest of the World to watch prelim bouts for UFC 127.
