As expected, the Ultimate Fighting Championship is heading to FOX.
UFC and FOX officials today announced a new seven-year,
multimedia-rights agreement that includes four live events broadcast in
prime time on FOX, as well as four to six live events each year on FOX’s
cable network, FX.
FX and FUEL TV will also broadcast extensive UFC programming, including
live fights, pre- and post-event shows, countdown shows, “UFC
Unleashed,” “UFC Primetime,” “UFC Knockouts,” “Best of PRIDE” and
weigh-in specials, as well as “The Ultimate Fighter reality series,”
which will now feature live fights and fan-voted matchups during two
annual seasons.
