Lukker-

They were definitely pushing Old Trafford at Bispings request but it doesn't really suit the weekend they need it.

Lads for those who think it may be on in London, surely it'd just be the o2 is the only likely venue, and as per the o2 website there's already an event on in there on October 8th?

I don't think there is. I've seen something for the 7th but not the 8th.

My mistake, the event I saw is for "indigo at the o2" which must be a nightclub or something

Yup, Indigo is a venue inside the complex as far as I remember.

I've seen Guilllerme Cruz from mmafighting say on twitter that the info he has is Manchester - I would take this as fairly reliable as he's usually on the ball especially when Brazilian fighters are involved

If you use booking dot com you can cancel 24 hrs before, but you won't have to cancel.

steveydon

What time do you reckon the main card kicks off so, local time? 1am or 3am?

1 of the potential FOTNs at 201 is off. Scoggins is out against McCall. Supposedly wont make weight and looking for a replacement.

LaGlisse

anyone know if the new Eir/BT deal will affect TV3 showing PPVs on the monday? Its handy for cards like this weekend that I dont feel like shelling out for on Fightpass

That_Guy

Am thinking of just going over late evening coming back first flight from Manchester to Dublin.

€18

That'd be alright yeah?

So had a look myself there and no sign of a UFC 201 showing this mon or tue on TV3 or 3E so looks like that avenue for catching up on PPVs you dont feel like shelling out for is gone

Me too.

What do we reckon, likely to be officially announced at 201?

It looks that way but i'd expect a european event to get announced at a decent european time, not at 4am.

Swashbuckler

Sweden?

Also this is a ppv numbered event so normal European time wouldn't suit the US ppv market
