The Loop is a fantastic and reliable addon for sports fans. The addon offers live streaming from various sports such as cricket, golf, rugby, darts, baseball, basketball, football, hockey and wrestling. Sports replays are also available including UFC, MMA and Formula 1. For replays, you can link your premium account such as Real Debrid but free sources are also available.
