"FOX reached out to us and started these conversations months ago about the potential of developing this deal," Rebney told 1️⃣ MMAjunkie.com.
The promotion on Tuesday announced a partnership with FOX Sports Latin America that covers 50 million homes in 19 Latin 1️⃣ American countries, including Brazil.
The deal calls for taped programming through 2014 and 25 live "in-territory" events annually starting in 2015.
The 1️⃣ news came as something of a surprise given the UFC's relationship with FOX, which is in the second year of 1️⃣ a seven-year broadcast deal with the promotion.
The UFC is one of seven "pillars" of sports programming on the new FOX 1️⃣ Sports 1 cable network, which airs its live events and shoulder programming.
