Premier Sports is usually a subscription sports channel that has shown some lesser known events and sports leagues in Football (Soccer), Rugby and Boxing but according to Davies the event will be free to air with no subscription required. Virgin Media and Freeview customers will still have to watch via UFC.TV only (sign up required but at no costs incurred). Premier Sports has also been the recent home for live Cage Warriors events, one of the UK's longest running and most professional MMA promotions.
