The show featured on the 7th will be an episode of "UFC Unleashed" with past fights of Keith Jardine vs. Chuck Liddell, Tyson Griffin vs. David Lee, Frank Mir vs. Antoni Hardonk and Patrick Cote vs. Kendall Grove to be replayed.
Starting next month, DSF will broadcast the Ultimate Fighting Championship every Saturday from 11PM.

Two combatants battle it out in an octagon over three rounds that are 5 minutes long. Victory can be achieved by knockout, submission or a points decision . The security and saftety of the Ultimate Fighters will be determined by a long list of well-defined rules and regulations. With the UFC, the DSF is now the German home of the most successful Mixed Martial Arts Organization (MMA) in the world.
DSF (Deutsches Sportfernsehen/ German Sports Television) is a dedicated sports television channel. It holds the rights to German Football (Soccer), NBA, Handball, and dozens of other sports. Its also the home of some WWE shows and kick boxing events.
