How to Watch UFC on Firestick
Last updated February 14, 2022
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is one the most popular sporting events in the world, and millions of fans watch them every time their favorite fighters enter the arena. For some UFC fights, you only need a subscription, while you need to make a separate purchase for others since they are pay-per-view (PPV) events. UFC matches are available on a lot of devices considering its popularity, including iOS, Android, consoles, smart TVs, and streaming devices, so let's see how to watch UFC on Firestick and other Fire TV devices.
Where to Watch UFC
You can watch UFC fights through the ESPN+ platform or through the UFC Fight Pass service.
UFC Fights on ESPN+
To watch your favorite Fight Nights live, all you need to do is subscribe to ESPN+ and nothing else. Since UFC Fight Nights are not pay-per-view events, nothing more is required. You can either go for the monthly plan, which costs $6.99 per month or the yearly plan for a better price overall and pay $69.99 per year. If you're also interested in the PPV events, read below.

If you are not interested in the standalone ESPN+ subscription, you can also choose to bundle ESPN+, Hulu, and Disney+ to get better pricing - you can save 25%, compared to the monthly cost of subscribing separately to each of these three services. The Disney Bundle costs $13.99 per month with ad-supported Hulu or $19.99 with Hulu No Ads.
UFC PPV Events on ESPN+
- UFC enthusiasts who want to become new ESPN Plus subscribers can buy their first UFC PPV event through a special option - new customers can save over 25% by purchasing the UFC PPV event access bundled with the annual ESPN+ plan for $99.98 (then $69.99 per year after the first year) or a PPV bundled with The Disney Bundle for $88.98 (then $13.99 per month).
- To watch a pay-per-view match, existing ESPN+ subscribers need to pay a one-time fee to see the paid event, and you can purchase a UFC PPV event live in HD for $74.99. The other option would be to upgrade from a monthly ESPN+ subscription to an annual one and then take advantage of the deal mentioned above by choosing "Upgrade and buy" while logged in.
ESPN+ is the exclusive streaming partner of UFC. All UFC Pay-Per-View events are broadcasted only on ESPN+. To Purchase UFC PPV events, subscribe to ESPN+ today.
We should mention that an ESPN+ subscription only allows you to watch the Main Card of a UFC PPV event. So, if you want to see all the bouts, you can go for the UFC Fight Pass subscription. This service offers access to the Early Prelims from the biggest UFC pay-per-view cards along with over 200 live events from promotions such as Invicta FC, GLORY Kickboxing, QUINTET (Team Submission Grappling), Eddie Bravo Invitational, Polaris, and many more for $9.99 per month or $95.99 per year.
