    Why are UFC events always late to appear on the Sky planner? Usually it's just the televised prelims but currently my Sky planner doesn't have this weekend's Fight Night listed. ufc.uk.com says it's on but the listing hasn't appeared yet. It's a pain.

    It's listed here for 1am.

    Shouldn't matter what or where it's being shown in the US, ESPN has the UK & Ireland contract for all UFC events, Fight Nights and numbered events. Only grey area is TUF finales because of the Setanta contract. Not confirmed yet that the next season will be on Setanta though, hopefully there were enough complaints last time and it might all be in the one place.

    This kinda bugs me too. I always go forward in the listings and Sky+ the UFC shows just in case i end up going out on a Sat night (or Sunday night in this case) but they always leave it til really late to put them up on the Sky listings.

    It's definately on ESPN though.

    Be safe, record whatever is next (in this case it's ESPN shorts or something, so record that and the next show) because if it runs over you'll miss the main event.

    Happened to me with the Diaz v Maynard event. My Sky box cut it off and i didnt get to see the Main Event.
