MMA Live Stream: How to Watch the Latest Fights Online

Lucas Coll
By

Looking to catch the latest MMA live stream, or looking for the best way to stream UFC, Bellator, and other MMA promotions online? Your two best options are, hands-down, ESPN+ and FITE.tv. These streaming services are must-haves for anybody who wants to watch MMA fights live online, but there are a few things to be aware of (such as price, to name just one) before you dive in. Here’s everything you need to know about streaming MMA fights and more with ESPN+ and FITE.tv.

ESPN+

ESPN

If you’re looking to watch MMA live streams online and follow the UFC, ESPN+ is a must-have. ESPN’s premium online streaming service, which costs $6 per month or $60 per year, is the go-to place not to not only stream UFC fights but also for boxing, soccer, and pretty much anything else sports-related, which includes not only live events but also exclusive shows, interviews, documentaries, press conferences, weigh-ins, and much more.

With regards to the UFC, ESPN+ is also notably the only platform that broadcasts live pay-per-view streams. That means you’ll need to sign up for ESPN+ if you want to watch MMA events like UFC 260: Miocic vs. Ngannou 2 on March 27. You can stream all of the live and on-demand content ESPN+ has to offer on compatible mobile devices, PC web browsers, smart TVs, streaming devices, and Xbox and PlayStation gaming consoles.

If you’re a new subscriber, then you can grab a one-time bundle offer ahead of UFC pay-per-view events that scores you a year’s worth of ESPN+ along with the UFC PPV package for $90, saving you $40. Another option is to sign up for The Disney Bundle which gets you ESPN+, Disney+, and basic Hulu (with ads) for just $13 per month, saving you 25% off the price of buying each subscription separately. If you already have any of these, you can still upgrade and get the discount.

FITE.tv is an increasing popular streaming platform for MMA live streams. It doesn’t broadcast UFC events, but for leagues like Bellator as well as lesser-known MMA (and other fighting) promotions, FITE.tv is a great tool to have in your streaming arsenal. Unlike ESPN+, it’s completely free to sign up for FITE.tv. That gives you access to plenty of free content but you’ll still have to shell out the cash if you want to watch MMA pay-per-view events. Thankfully, these are almost always much cheaper than the $70 ticket price for UFC PPV.

As with ESPN+ and most other popular streaming services, you can watch FITE.tv on your web browser, mobile device, smart TV, streaming stick, and Xbox or PlayStation gaming console. That gives you plenty of options for enjoying every non-UFC MMA live stream as well as other content FITE.tv has to offer, such as boxing, wrestling, motocross, and even medieval-style jousting if you want to party like it’s 1299.

F1 Brazilian GP live stream: Watch Formula 1 for free
Lewis Hamilton (44) driving for Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team during The Australian Formula One Grand Prix Race on April 02, 2023, at The Melbourne Grand Prix Circuit in Albert Park, Australia.

The F1 Championship continues with the Brazilian Grand Prix starting soon. It's going to be an exciting race with Max Verstappen sure to want to build on his victory in Mexico last week. If you want to see the F1 Brazilian Grand Prix live stream, there's a particularly great way to do so and even better -- it won't cost you a cent. Intrigued to know more? Here's all you need to know about how to watch the thrilling race.
Watch the free Brazilian GP live stream
The Brazilian Grand Prix is being aired for free in Austria and Luxembourg. This is great news for those in the countries, but devastating for residents traveling abroad who want to watch the action unfold live in their local language -- especially when it's free-to-watch at home. It's only natural that an Austrian currently in the United States would want to watch the race in Austrian and not English, right? This is completely safe and legal to do with a VPN like NordVPN. Just install it, choose to the location you wish to connect to, then fire up broadcast. The free streams are ORF in Austria or RTL Zwee in Luxembourg.

Unfortunately, there isn't a free Brazilian GP live stream for residents of other countries. Elsewhere, folks will need to tune in through a local broadcast partner. The race is available on ESPN in the United States, and the best way to tune in is through fuboTV, which offers a one-week free trial to new customers In the United Kingdom, it's available on Sky Sports F1, and over in Canada it's being broadcast in English through TNS and in French through RDS. There are some other options available as well -- below we'll talk you through the different ways you can tune in locally in the United States in more detail.

In an era filled with a wide array of streaming services, Disney tried to stand out by offering three different services at a single price point. Two of those services, Hulu and Disney Plus, offer chiefly fictional content. The third offering, though, is the ESPN streaming service known as ESPN Plus, which many users may have without even realizing, thanks to the Disney bundle. ESPN Plus gives you access to an array of documentaries, live sports, and original content, but all of that content doesn't do much good if you have absolutely no idea how to access it.

Thankfully, we've got all the information you need to subscribe to the service, and then watch ESPN Plus on whatever device you choose, whether that device is a PC, a TV, a table, or your phone.
