As much as I like Inside MMA. This is a better show.

Well ESPN mostly owns/controls TSN. That's all I know.

I think there's enough material to do a daily MMA show, at least monday to friday.

i'll take what i can get on a weekly show, but twice a week is more realistic than 5

Good thing DW was nice to those Sherdog.com people. Obviously ESPN can't get any MMA news without Sherdog. :roll:

Sherdog's content and its reporters are absolutely atrocious. Unfortunately, they're in the game for years and the reason why Sherwood, Hunt and uggh... Rossen have appeared on the program or in the MMA section.

TSN is 80% owned by CTV and 20% owned by ESPN. TSN has been giving way more coverage online to MMA lately with some minor coverage on Sports Center. With some of the crap they play I'd hope they could make room for MMA Live. It should at least make TSN2.

i'm hearing theres a chance it airs on TSN, but chances are greater that it airs on TSN2, which isn't basic cable. my source is another journalist and i do'nt know his source so i would say don't take what i just said to the bank.

The news on MMA Live is not exclusively from Sherdog. All the guys on MMA Live are NOT Sherdog reporters anyway.
I think sometimes they have had Jeff Sherwood on as an opinion analyst but that's it.
Also guys, Sherdog is NOT banned from covering UFC. They simply can't get credentialed by the UFC or ZUFFA which is my understanding. They still cover all the events do interviews and all sorts of stuff like that.
Anyway, I hope this is true and MMA live finally gets on an ESPN channel.
