With the UFC officially leaving their longtime broadcast home at FOX for greener pastures at ESPN, several notable personalities in the MMA universe are getting new gigs.
For starters, it’s currently unknown what will happen to the UFC Tonight program on FOX Sports 1, which employs notables the likes of Kenny Florian, Michael Bisping, Tyron Woodley, Rashad Evans, Karen Bryant, and more.
The show will likely fizzle out, and it’s unclear if ESPN will look to pick up something similar.
Ariel Helwani was one of the first to be nabbed by ESPN for two programs on UFC content. Helwani, left his longtime home as The MMA Hour host, and earlier today his replacement was announced.
