UFC 286 live stream: Can you watch Edwards vs Usman for free?

Lucas Coll

In a short while, Kamaru Usman and Leon Edwards will step into the octagon for their trilogy bout at the O2 Arena in London, England, with Usman looking to reclaim the UFC Welterweight Championship belt from Edwards following their last face-off at UFC 278 where her suffered his first defeat in the league. If you’re looking to tune in to this championship showdown, then there’s only one official service, and that’s ESPN+. Yes, that means there’s no (legal) free UFC 286 live stream. But don’t worry, there might be a way for you to save money on a virtual ticket to the event.

MMA fans looking to watch UFC 286: Edwards vs. Usman 3 will have to tune in to ESPN+, the exclusive broadcaster of UFC pay-per-view events in the U.S. Following a recent price increase, an ESPN+ subscription will set you back $10 per month or $100 per year, while UFC pay-per-view events come at an additional cost of $80 per year. It’s sadly getting more and more expensive to be a UFC fan; however, ESPN+ always offers a one-time bundle deal ahead of UFC PPVs that gets you a one-year subscription and access to UFC 286 for $125. This sign-up offer saves you $55 on the price of  purchasing the subscription and pay-per-view separately. If you’re a new subscriber planning to catch the fight, now’s the time to take advantage of this discount so you can watch UFC 286 online tonight and save some cash. Existing subscribers will have to pony up the $80 to access the UFC 286 live stream, though.
