Whether you’re in the United States or the United Kingdom, here’s your complete guide to watching UFC 321 live tonight — including start times, streaming options, and viewing tips.
Event Overview
UFC 321 takes place tonight, October 25, 2025, at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The main event features Tom Aspinall defending his heavyweight championship against former interim titleholder Ciryl Gane, in a clash that could redefine the division’s future. The co-main event will see Mackenzie Dern take on Virna Jandiroba for the vacant women’s strawweight title.
The rest of the card is packed with high-level talent, including Alexander Volkov vs Jailton Almeida and Umar Nurmagomedov vs Mario Bautista, ensuring fans are treated to a full night of elite competition from start to finish.
Start Time
Because UFC 321 is being held in Abu Dhabi, the start times differ from a typical Las Vegas card.
For US viewers:
- Early Prelims: 10:00 AM ET / 7:00 AM PT
- Main Card: 2:00 PM ET / 11:00 AM PT
For UK viewers:
- Early Prelims: 3:00 PM BST
- Main Card: 7:00 PM BST
The schedule allows both US and UK fans to enjoy a daytime or early evening fight card rather than staying up overnight, which is rare for major UFC events.
