Fortunes changed for five at UFC Brooklyn

The UFC moved networks this past weekend to ESPN, but after the first offering, aside from the channel on your service, not much was different.

We had the same announcers. The same panelists. The same rules of the sport before every broadcast. The same post-fight show. The same production.

Really, aside from seeing ESPN talking head Stephen A. Smith in a host role, and people just waiting for him to say something that would make you cringe to hate him, and him not doing so at all, and the nature of the late start because a lead-in sports event went over, almost everything was the same.
