The UFC fights are some of the most popular sporting events in the world, and millions of fans watch them every time they take place. The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) events are diverse, and some can be seen through subscriptions alone, while others are pay-per-view (PPV) fights that need to be purchased separately. Considering its popularity, UFC matches are available on a lot of devices, including iOS, Android, consoles, and smart TVs, so let's see how to watch UFC on Android.

Where to Watch UFC

You can watch UFC matches through the ESPN+ platform or through the UFC Fight Pass service.

UFC Fights on ESPN+: 

UFC Fight Nights are not pay-per-view events, so all you need to do is to subscribe to ESPN+ and watch your favorite fights live. You can either go for the monthly plan, which costs $6.99 per month, or opt for 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.

Besides the standard ESPN+ subscription, you can also choose to bundle ESPN+, Hulu, and Disney+ to get better pricing - $13.99 per month with ad-supported Hulu or $19.99 with Hulu No Ads. You can save 25%, compared to the monthly cost of subscribing separately to each of these three services.

UFC PPV Events on ESPN+:

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, as it 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.
