LOS ANGELES – Saturday night’s UFC on FOX debut signals the beginning of
an intriguing period for the Ultimate Fighting Championship and its
broadcast partners.
As one era begins with the FOX family of networks, another will slowly
come to an end as UFC programming is eventually replaced with Bellator
Fighting Championships events on Spike TV.
UFC president Dana White today said he maintains the utmost respect for
the operations team at Spike TV and realizes they have been instrumental
in the fight promotion’s expansion. That said, White said the gloves
will come quickly off.
