Scott Coker has some big news for Bellator fans in the UK.
The Bellator president announced Wednesday on Twitter that Bellator 206 will air live in the UK. The event will air on UK network Channel 5.
“The wait is over,” Coker wrote. “No week’s long tape-delay... LIVE!”
Until now, UK fans have not been able to watch Bellator live. Instead, events — even ones taking place in the UK — have aired on tape delay one week later.
It’s not yet clear whether future Bellator shows will also be aired live in the region.
