We know you’re anticipating the next UFC card like Connor McGregor anticipates a press conference for a chance to trash talk his opponent.
Or you’re looking forward to the Bellator Champion Series and the PFL’s regular season.
Either way, we have the info for you on when and how you can watch every MMA fight.
Card of the month: UFC 300
The main fight will be one to remember: Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill. Pereira is the ninth fighter ever to be a UFC two-division World Champion, including the light heavyweight title—the title Hill had to relinquish last year.
Hill’s last fight was over a year ago when he defeated Glover Teixeira to win the light heavyweight belt. Now, he’s coming for his prodigy.
Not only are we gifted with a fight between an unstoppable force and an underdog coming to take back what was once his, but we also get to watch Charles Oliviera, Justin Gaethje, Max Holloway, Zhang Weili, and Yan Xiaonan step into the octagon.
IT’S TIME for UFC’s upcoming fight schedule
After 31 years, UFC has hit a milestone of 300 numbered fights—300 fights that we’ve watched on Saturday nights with friends and family. And the UFC did not disappoint when putting this card together.
If you’re into all things UFC, check out this schedule with UFC Fight Nights included.

Bellator MMA is still kicking
March 22 kicked off the first fight of the new Bellator Champion Series, which will be held worldwide.
You might be as confused as I am that Bellator still has its own fights despite the merger with PFL, but this was all the PFL’s doing. This eight-event series is in venues and areas with growing interest in MMA.
I mean, we’re not complaining. That means more MMA fights to watch. You can watch this series on Max and truTV.

PFL’s regular season is underway
Gear up for adrenaline-pumping action as the Professional Fighters League begins its 6th season, which will follow a regular season, playoff, and championship format.
You likely already have ESPN+ for UFC fights, so you won’t need more or less to catch every PFL matchup (and you don’t have to pay a PPV fee like you do with a UFC card).
In 2023, playoffs started in August, and the World Championship was in November, so we’ll update the schedule so you don’t miss a crucial fight.
