Does anyone know if the next UFC fight (101 on Sunday morning) will be shown on ESPN?

I called Sky, thinking they may know.....but no joy.

ESPN is available as a HD channel, so I guess so.

Checked the listings and UFC is showing up as a 3am start on Sunday morning.

Gotta be worth the £9 alone.

It's free for the first month, isn't it?

Apparently not, but you can order it on a monthly basis, so no long term tie in.
I ordered it over the phone tonight, and it was active before the call was finished.

If be surprised if you can. They don't even allow fights to be uploaded to YouTube.
