The cost structure introduced by ESPN+ for UFC fans is a complicated one, but here is all the information you need before making the purchase.

UFC 263 Fight Card

UFC 263 will take place in front of a capacity crowd of 18,000 supporters. The main event will see UFC superstar and middleweight champion Israel Adesanya take the fight against Marvin Vettori. The two faced off in a brutal and competitive match-up back in 2018, and if that is anything to go by, this weekend's fight will be nothing short of spectacular.

The UFC Flyweight Championship will be defended in the co-main event, as Deiveson Figueiredo takes on Brandon Moreno. The two fought to a thrilling draw at UFC 256 in December. And this fight has all the ingredients to be a show-stealer.
