Nothing beats a UFC Fight Night. The UFC continues producing some of the year's biggest and best fights by bringing together the world's most skilled and determined mixed martial artists for thrilling battles inside the Octagon.
But how can you watch and livestream everything that's going on in the Octagon? Here is everything you need to know to ensure you have the right packages to watch UFC Fight Night...
Which channels have the rights to UFC Fight Night?
The ESPN network currently has the exclusive rights to UFC events, a relationship that has existed for around five years. The network broadcasts regular Fight Night shows and PPV events. It's broadcast across ESPN, ESPN+, and ESPN Deportes for those wanting to enjoy fight nights with Spanish-language coverage.
Alongside ESPN, the UFC also has its own streaming platform, the UFC Fight Pass, which offers live streams of plenty of action via your computer or smartphone device.
How to watch UFC 314: Volkanovski vs Lopes
Another main UFC fight night event is upon us. This time, Australia's Alexander Volkanovski takes on Brazil's Diego Lopes. Alexander Volkanovski is attempting to regain the crown he first won in December 2019 when beating Max Holloway. The awesome Aussie remained glued to the featherweight throne for over 4 years, making 5 successful defences. The belt was finally prized from his clutches by Topuria in February last year, which is the last time we saw ‘The Great’ in action.
While Volkanovski is competing in his 10th consecutive title fight, Diego Lopes is getting his first crack at a belt. Despite an inauspicious start to his UFC career, when losing to Movsar Evloev on his promotional debut in May 2023, the Brazilian bounced back well racking up five straight wins, and now gets his shot at stardom following a unanimous decision win over two-time UFC title challenger Brian Ortega at UFC 306 last September.
