Alright so this morning I woke up thinking man I really wanna watch the old Ultimate Fighter season 7 again. You know the one with Forrest Griffin coaching against Rampage? Classic stuff. But guess what? It’s nowhere on my usual streaming places anymore. Totally vanished.
First thing I did was grab my phone and just typed “watch TUF season 7 online” straight into the search bar. Bunch of results popped up but mostly junk. Old forum posts from like a decade ago saying “go here” but those links are probably dead now. Felt like digging through a closet full of expired coupons.
Hitting Roadblocks Everywhere
Checked the big names first:
Netflix? Nope.
Hulu? Not there either.
Amazon Prime Video? Searched high and low like I lost my keys. Nothing. Zilch.
Felt super annoying ’cause it used to be easier to find.
Next I poked around on ESPN+ since UFC stuff usually ends up there. Scrolled forever through fight libraries. Found some newer TUF seasons but season 7? Missing like my morning coffee before I brew it. Really grinding my gears at this point.
The Free Trial Shuffle
Remembered some places let you test drive ’em for free. Thought hey maybe I can sneak in watch the season and bail before paying. Looked up a couple:
FuboTV? Heard they carry fight sports. Started signing up for their free trial but man the steps felt endless.
DirecTV Stream? Same song and dance. Felt like jumping through hoops just to maybe find it.
Didn’t even know if these had season 7 specifically. Whole thing felt shaky like walking on a loose floorboard.
Almost thought about digging up my old DVDs but who knows where those are buried after three moves? Probably scratched to heck anyhow.
That “Gotcha” Moment & Feeling Stuck
After like an hour bouncing between apps and websites feeling like a headless chicken I finally got a straight answer buried deep in some forum: most legal streams yanked off season 7 specifically. Some licensing black hole ate it or something.
Real kicker? Found out it’s straight-up blocked where I am for no good reason. Typical internet nonsense. Started muttering to myself like an old man mad about the weather.
Felt dumb wasting all that time chasing nothing. Standing there staring at my TV flashing search errors. Maybe those dusty DVDs weren’t such a bad idea after all… if I ever find ’em under the couch.
