Guardians of the Galaxy tells the story of the human rogue Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) and his ragtag crew of aliens: The redemption-seeking assassin Gamora (Zoe Saldana), the hulking warrior Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista), the tree-like humanoid Groot (Vin Diesel), and a smart-talking trigger-happy raccoon named Rocket (Bradley Cooper). The group bands together to evade capture by the villain Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace) after Quill steals a mysterious orb that Ronan — a former ally of Thanos — needs to carry out his genocidal plans.

If you want to watch Guardians of the Galaxy online, then now’s the time to sign up for Disney+. Disney+ rings in at $8 per month or $80 for an annual subscription, but if you want a more complete streaming package, then you should definitely upgrade to the Disney Bundle which gets you Disney+ along with Hulu (ad-supported) and ESPN+ for just $14 per month.

In the past, stringent regional broadcasting regulations made it difficult for MMA fans to watch UFC fights online and other live events without a cable subscription. However, much has changed in recent years, and the immense popularity of streaming apps has prodded sports broadcasters to make live programming more accessible. ESPN, the official broadcaster of the UFC in the United States, introduced ESPN+ five years ago in response to this shift towards streaming. Since then, ESPN+ has emerged as the top outlet for watching UFC fights and pay-per-view events online in the U.S. With ESPN+, you can conveniently stream all the action on your PC, mobile device, smart TV, or gaming console. To help you get started, we've compiled a comprehensive guide covering everything you need to know about how to watch UFC live streams. We've also included an up-to-date schedule of upcoming fights so you don't miss a minute.

Watch the Official UFC Live Stream
By far the best way to watch UFC live streams online is ESPN+, a premium streaming service that launched in 2018. ESPN+ delivers a cornucopia of sports content, including MMA and boxing, to almost any modern streaming device. That said, you've got some other options that are also worth mentioning. But due to the very tight relationship between ESPN and the Ultimate Fighting Championship, you'll still need to sign up for ESPN+ in order to live stream UFC pay-per-view events.
