That is massive for the UFC. Their reach will be massive.

Huge

I will tune in to EVERY “PPV” event for UFC now. There were times that $70 just wasn’t worth it if the card wasn’t good enough but I’ll 100% watch every one now.

$80 as of the last two years and most of them over the last year have been terrible cards.

Without a PPV model is interesting….. so UFC 324 will be free on CBS or will you need a paramount + subscription?

I would imagine the Fight Nights would be on CBS, but the numbered cards only with the app service with the prelims simulcast.

I have Paramount plus free through T Mobile so I actually may watch an event or two.
Posted on 8/11/25 at 8:29 am to RyanMartin835
Paramount + is also free for Walmart + subscribers. I wonder if this will open the door for some deal with merchandising between UFC and Walmart.

Now if they just convince the UFC to start the main cards a little earlier.
My biggest gripe with paying for it was that I was never awake for the main fight. Guess Im old.

Same here with needing a little earlier start time. Just 1 hr would make a huge difference.

Agreed. Main events starting at 1115-1130 central is dumb

I used to be really into the sport but having a kid pretty much killed that. Main cards starting around ten and on paramount plus would have me watching almost every event

I have Paramount+ through my Walmart+ subscription. I will watch the fights on there for sure. Better than streaming through the pirate sites, that always buffer.

Just saw this. Hell yes! No more of the wonky-arse ESPN setup, and this should cause UFC’s audience reach to explode. And the best part is that my wife already subscribes to Paramount for some of her girly shows.
