I recently moved to Ghana to work on a project and it seems as though very few people follow MMA here. Does anyone have an answer to where I can view some events on TV? Or is this not possible? Thanks.

Well Africa in general doesn't follow combat sports (aside from traditional martial arts) very closely. The only exception to this rule is South Africa, which features EFC Africa (which airs events on there website) and Fight Force (I don't know if they have a media outlet).

However you may be able to see live boxing. According to Boxrec there are two upcoming events.

#1 - Saturday July 30th (http://boxrec.com/show_display.php?show_id=622926)
#2 - Saturday August 27th (http://boxrec.com/show_display.php?show_id=624385)
