Use the current US viewing arrangement

UFC numbered events and Fight Nights moved to Paramount+ in the United States in 2026, with selected CBS simulcasts. See the Paramount and UFC announcement and check the current event listing before subscribing.

Do not use a Canadian, UK or older US guide as proof of what your US account includes. Current plan terms, device support and replay availability should be checked with the broadcaster. This page does not promise that any particular event is included in a BexyTV plan.

Prelims, main card and main event are different times

Write down which part of the card you want to watch. A main-card start time is not a guaranteed ring-walk time for the final fight. Earlier bouts can end quickly or go the distance, and cards can change. Set your reminder for the relevant card segment rather than an unofficial prediction of the final bout's start.

Use the official UFC events directory for the event date and card. Confirm your local time zone, especially for overseas events or a card that crosses midnight where you live.

Prepare the television before the broadcast

  1. Install or update the broadcaster's supported app ahead of time.
  2. Sign in and confirm your subscription on the device.
  3. Test picture and sound with available content.
  4. Check the live-event tile when coverage begins.
  5. Keep account recovery available privately, without sharing the login in group chats.

Troubleshoot without losing the whole card

First distinguish an event that has not started from a failed stream. Then check whether other content in the same app works. If only the live event fails, note its exact title and the error. If the whole app fails on one device, compare a second supported device within the account's rules.

Do not disable browser or device security to install a “fight-night fix” from an unknown message. A site copying an event poster is not proof that it is an authorized broadcaster. If you need a replay, check the provider's replay entitlement rather than assuming the live subscription guarantees permanent access.

The useful checklist

Event name, country, card segment, local start time, broadcaster, subscription tier and device: those seven details are enough to make your plan specific. Channel-count promises and generic “all sports” descriptions are not a substitute.
