Streaming of UFC Pay-Per-Views on Prime Video
In a significant move for sports streaming, the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has announced that it will stream its pay-per-view events in the US exclusively on Amazon Prime Video. This change marks the beginning of a new era for UFC fans in America, starting with UFC 222 in Las Vegas on February 28, 2018.
UFC's current exclusive multi-year deal with Fox is set to expire at the end of the year, and the organisation is currently in negotiations for its next media rights deal. However, the available search results do not provide information about which company will secure the rights after Fox.
Meanwhile, the race for cellular consumers continues, with Starlink and AST SpaceMobile vying for a share of the market. Interestingly, this shift in UFC's streaming rights comes amidst reports of trouble for foreign direct-to-digital (D2D) satellites over India, where Starlink has faced challenges, and Pakistan, where broadband D2D has been halted.
One of the key questions on fans' minds is whether purchasing a UFC event on Amazon Prime Video requires an Amazon Prime membership. Fortunately, the answer is no. While an Amazon Prime membership offers various benefits, it is not a requirement to purchase a UFC event. The cost per UFC event on Amazon Prime Video is $64.99, the same as on other platforms.
This new partnership between UFC and Amazon Prime Video is set to bring exciting changes to the world of sports streaming, offering fans a new platform to enjoy their favourite UFC events. As the negotiations for the next media rights deal continue, fans can look forward to more updates and the continuation of UFC's exciting journey on Amazon Prime Video.
