AwesomeJJ · 06-11-2009, 19:21

it says that it's a roundup of all the MMA news from the past week. is this from the ESPN UK studio or did they import it from the States?

I think it's the same show from ESPN.com.

Wonder if ESPN UK realise that they also talk about events they don't have the rights to, such as tomorrow night's Strikeforce show, which Bravo are showing on Sunday night.

24 hour delay?

and ESPN are always breaking broadcast code, like when baseball wasnt being played, they showed a lot of sportscenter clips with different sport, etc

dont tell, ESPN are doing well atm

Hopefully the same as the US show as its not a UFC only show.

ESPN in the US don't have rights to any MMA, but still produce a show for their website.

Looks like it will be a regular thing if they mentioned ESPN UK.

Cheers for that, I didn't realise that was being shown in the UK.

Looking forward to seeing Fedor and Moussasi

AwesomeJJ · 07-11-2009, 12:39

oh yeah, they mentioned ESPN UK, woo =D

but they should have given us more of a welcome, that was one of those lame lines they said quickly to end the show.

Hopefully someone will show "Inside MMA" as well, easily the best MMA round up/magazine show.

It's got Bas Rutten, for a start.

AwesomeJJ · 11-11-2009, 00:22

is that on HDNet?

I've heard good things about that MMA show. but probably not, since it's not endorsed by ESPN in America.

welsh_Gaz · 11-11-2009, 00:24

Yeah, HDNet. It's fantastic, especially when Don Frye was a guest. Him and Rutten had great banter. They used to stream it on Sherdog, but don't anymore. I'd love for FiveUS to pick it up, seeing as they have TUF.

AwesomeJJ · 21-11-2009, 01:07

damn, they made it an hour long now so ESPN UK can put in adverts >:|

it was a matter of time.

Just do what I do. Watch Around The Horn and PTI and tape MMA Live. Then you can fast forward the breaks.
