UFC Parts Ways with ESPN

The UFC has officially parted ways with ESPN and may be moving away from the pay-per-view (PPV) model.

PPV numbers have been consistently declining in recent years. This is largely due to a significant number of fans pirating UFC events.

One potential reason for this trend is the perceived drop in card quality. A recent example is UFC 312, which featured very few ranked fighters. The upcoming UFC 315 also appears to be a weak card, with not many exciting bouts scheduled.
