Premier sports, Sky channel 433, doesn't seem to be showing on cable though. Hope that helps.

Kinda ironic... they give you guys all of the PPV's on ESPN and then you can't see this card? Guess you will have to find a stream like lots of americans have to do every PPV.

Not ironic at all. The Versus events started after the ESPN contract was put in place so separate deals were worked out for the first four, and they simply didn't want to pay for these last two.
We can see the card on Premier Sports and UFC.tv (both free) so we don't HAVE to use a stream.

Yep channel 433 on sky but if you have virgin you will have to watch it on UFC.tv or do something illegal.

Anyone else have problems with the event? I recorded it on Sky+ and lost a few rounds in different fights due to the signal cutting out, and I've never had this problem before.
Also, War Sass!

That was an issue with Premier Sports. They didn't actually make Cage Warriors free until mid-broadcast, I believe, so it's being shown on free repeat to make up for the issue.
