BT Sport’s MMA coverage is about to Get Better
The UFC announced the launch of a brand-spanking new monthly television show on BT Sport. The show, entitled UFC Fighting Talk, will cover all the latest news, informed debate and opinions from the wonderfully weird world of the UFC.
It will be presented by OJ Borg, who fight fans will remember as the post-fight interviewer for BAMMA on Channel 5. He will be joined every week by former UFC welterweight title contender Dan Hardy, as well as a host of celebrity guests and a UK-based MMA journo to give the discussion some balance.
The maiden voyage of the programme will focus on UFC 183 which features a star-studded main card including a headline bout between UFC veteran Anderson Silva and fan favourite Nick Diaz. The celebrity guest in the studio for the first episode will be none other than British rapper Scroobius Pip, who apparently is a massive MMA fan.
Rumble, young man, rumble.
