The UFC has a new cable home in Canada.

The company, which had long been broadcast on Rogers Sportsnet, will now be seen on TSN and it’s French-language counterpart, RDS, the company formally announced on Monday. MMAFighting.com first reported the news of the impending deal on Friday.

Additionally, some UFC content will air on The Fight Network.

TSN, Canada’s equivalent of ESPN, as well as RDS, will air live events, including prelim bouts from PPV cards, North American UFC Fight Night events, and The Ultimate Fighter.

Fight Network will be Canada’s home for international UFC Fight Night cards and prelim broadcasts for non-PPV cards.

According to TSN’s online listings for January, coverage will begin with content related to UFC 182 on Jan. 3. The first major live event on TSN 1 will be the Jan. 18 Fight Night card from Boston, featuring Conor McGregor vs. Dennis Siver.
