Video / NZ HeraldSky will have to share rights to UFC pay-per-view events with Spark Sport under a new deal, revealed by Spark this afternoon. Previously, Sky had exclusive New Zealand rights to the mixed-martial-arts competition's pay-per-view fights. Spark Sport will charge $39.95 for UFC pay-per-view events - the same price currently charged by Sky Sport and its streaming app Sky Sport Now. "We are thrilled to partner with Spark Sport, making the best of UFC available to more New Zealanders," UFC Australia and Zealand vice president Peter Kloczko said. Working with Spark Sport to distribute these events betters UFC's ability to deliver content to our fans."
