Is there anywhere to find a schedule for the BT Sports app? If that doesn't work I'm going to have to VPN fight pass, aren't I?

 

Here's the schedule for the next week 

 

 

Cheers man, but that's just the schedule for the actual TV channel. According to that we're getting it at 9pm, with no prelims or anything.

 

I thought someone said we were getting the whole thing live via the app? I could be mistaken right enough.

He is doing the Glasgow show as its a Fox event but usually European events are done by Andy Friedlander.

 

It's the same reason Gooden and Hardy aren't commentating the Glasgow show.

 

Gooden & Hardy were the BT Sport Commentators on the FOX Sweden Card 

 

EDIT: Goldberg & Stann will be the Announce Team

PRELIMINARY CARD (UFC Fight Pass, 7 p.m. ET)

it's a solid looking card from top bottom really, even the Fight Pass Prelims hold interest for me. Nice to see Lyman Good get the shout.

Beyond The Octagon they said the Scotland card is live via the BT Sports app. And then aired at 9PM on BT Sports 2. As someone mentioned earlier I'd presume watershed is the reason they're not airing it live on tv. Frustrating though as I'd imagine the red button service would exempt them from such rules...

How do we see Holly Holm vs. Marion Reneau playing out? Holm didn't really impress in her UFC debut and Reneau seems to have some tools that could easily put the spoilers on a Rousey/Holm fight in the near future.

was Reneau the chick that thanked her dog or something after her last fight?

 

I'm down to see Holm fight though, i expect to see improvements every time she's out there, a KO or something though and i wouldn't be surprised if she's next for Rousey.

Gooden & Hardy were the BT Sport Commentators on the FOX Sweden card so not guaranteed

Hardy has said they aren't covering this show because it's a Fox event. Also presumably because BT and UFC don't seem to be keen on working with each other anymore.

If would love to see Holm look amazing in the fight and KO Reneau, if only to give Rousey a new opponent in future. I would also like to see Reneau test Holm's TDD, submission defence and such though, to see how she copes is in that regard.

 

I think the winner of Tate/Eye is getting the next title shot though anyway, so Holm would probably fight again before a Rousey fight.

it's probably best that she gets a couple more in because she's not the finished article. But the best female MMA fighter vs. the best female boxer is a marketable fight.

We've got to hope Eye beats Tate. Nothing against Tate, but another match with Double R is going to take their rivalry into Goldberg/Jerry Flynn territory.

Frank Mir.

 

Frank fucking Mir.

 

Hilarious. In general the standard of that main event was low, with two big lugs just swinging and hoping but it was a nice little weave and hook to finish the fight. He knocked Duffee dead.
