The creative wrinkles in the UFC-Paramount relationship continue to show in a new announcement around the UFC 326 broadcast.
Paramount announced on Tuesday that the final hour of the UFC 326 preliminary card and the first hour of the UFC main card will be simulcast on broadcast television through CBS.

The simulcast for the March 7 event from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas will mark the first time UFC fights will be broadcast on a CBS platform. The network has aired MMA in the past with the now-defunct Strikeforce and Bellator organizations.
According to the release, the CBS portion of the card will air from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. ET. The entire event will still stream on Paramount+ for subscribers to the service.

-
Caio Borralho vs. Reinier de Ridder

Brunno Ferreira vs. Gregory Rodrigues
