How to Watch UFC on Android
Published on January 14, 2022
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+:Â
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+:
- UFC fans who currently do not have an ESPN+ subscription can buy their first UFC PPV event through a special option - new subscribers 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, 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.
