Looks like it is for the title and Ferguson is no longer interim champ. Harsh. Two titles vacated in one shot. That has to be a record. Just add it to the heap of evidence that UFC needs to do away with this interim title bullshit.

And now UFC On FOX: P****** vs. G****** (don't want to risk jinxing them) has lost the co-main as Matt Brown tore his ACL and will no longer face Carlos Condit.

Consider this a rumor for now: UFC could be making a deal for ESPN and NBC to split an expanded UFC tv package

It's broken by a site called TerrezOwens so take it with a heaping helping of salt Only 6 PPVs a year could be awesome if they really increase the number of Fight Nights. I’m hoping it would force the company to really stack the shows so when the inevitable happens and fights get pulled they are still great quality shows. In the current UFC model PPVs generate so much income that even with this change PPV buys are still going to be important. However, right now it seems like PPVs can bomb without affecting the company too much. If the number is reduced that makes each PPV that much more important and they are then made even more of a priority.

Consider this a rumor for now: UFC could be making a deal for ESPN and NBC to split an expanded UFC tv package Interesting part of this is what this could potentially mean for the WWE deal if NBC gets involved here. It leaves Fox Sports without content... Hrmm. Edit: Also, if ESPN and NBC split streaming rights, what does that mean for Fight Pass, a glorified library with no fresh new content?

So, as far as I can find, that TV deal stuff was bullshit. Everyone is sourcing that TerezOwens thing, and his source was a random message board post.
EDIT: Posted something that I have since read was wrong

www.f4wonline.com/ufc-news/report-espn-fox-proposing-team-new-ufc-tv-deal-255961New report as per Variety says the current belief is that it's ESPN and Fox, not NBC, who will be partners on the new UFC deal. ESPN will pay $120-180 mil. a year with escalators for 15 events a year for it's new streaming service and Fox would pay a little over a little over $200 mil. a year for terms not yet disclosed. One would also have to believe this leads to a decrease in PPV shows, but nothing about that is actually mentioned.

Steroid ref is so slow on stopping guys from taking unnecessary punishment. Get it together Buddy Lee Parker!
