They were saying last night it's free in the U.S on Spike, but on PPV outside of the US.....does this mean we don't get it free in Canada?????

We'll be getting it for free. Sometimes you just have to imagine the "and Canada" part.

I thought so, but I wasn't sure....I was pretty scared when I saw that....I've been telling all my buddies who aren't really MMA fans that this was a GREAT opportunity for them to check it out and pay nothing.....

On the website it says that it will be on Viewers Choice (PPV) in Canada.

I hope that doesn't mean they'll show alternate programming in Canada like they did when Spike used to show James Bond films. I guess we'll see in a couple weeks.

Yes, it's definitely on PPV that day. The only question is whether or not those of us who subscribe to Spike in Canada will have it blacked out or not. I hope not, but I'm not confident.

On the other hand, watching it on Viewers Choice live might be a better show than watching it on Spike delayed. Maybe more fights and no doubt less commercials.

Again, if you have SpikeTV in canada you should be able to see it, theyve never blocked out a UFC event here before. not to mention they have this plastered on the UFC 70 card.

I'll bet that pisses off Viewers Choice. Cheaper to subscribe to Spike for a year than buy UFC 70.

I think there are gonna block it out here in Canada, at the "Bell TV" website its on PPV they wouldn't have it on PPV if it was gonna be on TV.We are screwed in Canada not to worry I Got Dishnet and will upload it to the vids section anyway,if its free in the U.S. it should be free here too.
