When WME-IMG purchased the UFC last year, rumors swirled that they would cut back on the number of events the promotion put on in 2017.
However, according to multiple sources, that isn’t the case. While early schedules are very much subject to change, MMA Fighting has confirmed the promotion’s current plan for this year. Here’s how it looks at the moment:
- 13 pay-per-views (11 in North America, 1 in Canada, 1 in Brazil).
- Four “big” Fox shows.
- 16 FS1 “Fight Night” events.
- Two TUF Finales.
- 41 Total events.
