ESPN and FOX Teaming Up for UFC TV Rights?

Variety has a story about ESPN and FOX teaming up to pitch a potential UFC TV rights bid. The report says that ESPN would pay $120-180 million per year to add up to 15 UFC events to its ESPN+ streaming service, while FOX would pay about $200 million for shows on FOX and FOX Sports 1.

FOX currently pays about $120 million a year for the UFC right now, but UFC’s parent company is seeking about $300-$400 million a year for its new deal.

WWE is also negotiating a TV deal at the same time and FOX has been named as a possible suitor. If FOX teams up with ESPN for the UFC deal, they would possibly have money left over to make a bid for both the UFC and WWE instead of just one or the other.
