How is Fox getting fukked in the deal? They never budged from their stance and UFC isn't going to ESPN of old, they're are going to a network that continues to have massive layoffs and falling ratings. The WWE is actually doing good financial numbers but that doesn't fit in with the whole "WWE is dying" narrative people want to use on here:russ:

They got fukked because they paid more money than they should have to get content that filled time but wasn't popular on their networks. UFC ratings on Fox and Fox Sports have been awful. They get less viewers for Fight Nights on FS1 than PPV prelims got on Spike. In fact, Bellator has done better numbers on Spike than UFC on FS1 a number of times. Their averages have gone down each year of the partnership.

That's why they can't wait to get rid of Dana and UFC and give Vince and WWE significantly more money for fukking SMACKDOWN.

My bad, I thought you meant currently and not the previous deal they had.
