A large number of Foxtel and Main Event customers were left furious after technical difficulties meant that they missed the headlining bout during UFC 200.
Fans were quick to vent on social media after the feed, which cost $49.95, dropped out during the main event championship fight between Miesha Tate and Amanda Nunes.
Money back time? @MainEventTV @ufc no coverage of the main event!
