A new era for the Ultimate Fighting Championship is on the horizon.

On Sunday, Paramount+, which will be the broadcast home for all UFC content for the next seven years, released its first promotional video for its upcoming coverage of the Las Vegas-based organization’s events.

The video includes clips of the likes of Israel Adesanya, Ilia Topuria, Jon Jones, Kayla Harrison and Merab Dvalishvili while the Jane’s Addiction song “Coming Down the Mountain” plays in the background. The 15-second trailer concludes with the statement, “The global sports phenomenon has a new home.”

Earlier this year, the UFC and Paramount announced a seven-year, $7.7 billion media rights agreement where Paramount will become the exclusive home of all the promotion’s events in the United States. The partnership will mark the end to the UFC’s pay-per-view model, as all numbered events will be streamed on Paramount+, with some being simulcast on CBS.

UFC-Paramount deal​

The UFC-Paramount deal will bring all numbered UFC events, and all UFC Fight Nights, exclusively to Paramount+. The $7.7 billion, seven-year deal, announced on Aug. 11, 2025, starts in 2026, and runs through 2033. CBS Sports called the media-rights pact "a monumental move for UFC" -- one that shifts the brand's marquee numbered events away from the pay-per-view model. Under the terms of the deal, certain UFC numbered events will even be available to watch on CBS.

When will UFC be on Paramount+?​

UFC will be on Paramount+ starting in 2026.

Where to watch UFC in 2026?​

  • ➡️ Paramount+ will be the exclusive home to all 13 marquee UFC numbered events, and all 30 UFC Fight Nights in 2026.
  • ➡️ Select UFC numbered events in 2026 will also air live on CBS, meaning you'll be able to watch those events on your TV via your local CBS station using cable, satellite, or a digital antenna.

How to watch​

To watch UFC on Paramount+ in 2026, you'll need a Paramount+ subscription, either monthly or annual.

(Think college football – and more …)
 
To be honest, not that great. They should have put more effort into it. Adesanya? Ronda? Weird choices.
