UFC 319 Preview: Du Plessis vs. Chimaev and the Death of Pay-Per-View
Two seismic events are reshaping combat sports this week: Dricus Du Plessis defends his middleweight title against undefeated Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 319, while the UFC’s $7.7 billion Paramount deal officially kills the pay-per-view model forever. This Thursday at 8:05 PM ET, Dave Simon, Fred Garcia, and AJ D’Alesio break down why the reigning champion enters as a betting underdog, what Chimaev’s perfect record means when he’s never fought past round three, and how guaranteed streaming revenue changes everything for fighters who just lost their biggest bargaining chip. Live on YouTube, Rumble, Twitch and Kick—because understanding the business matters as much as knowing who can take a shot.
