This weekend’s UFC 324 will mark the first time in the promotion’s history that it won’t broadcast on a traditional pay-per-view (PPV) model. Instead, it has teamed up with Paramount – through a seven-year deal worth a whopping $7.7 billion – to air its fights on a subscription basis.
Read on to learn how to stream the big event live on Paramount+.
UFC 324 live streams, date, kick-off time
UFC 324 takes place on Saturday, January 24
▶︎ Main card start time: 9 P.M. ET/ 6 P.M. PT
▶︎ Venue — T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas
▶︎ U.S. Stream — Paramount+
The first Paramount main card event will feature the 31-year-old Liverpool lad Paddy Pimblett taking on Justin Gaethje for the interim UFC lightweight championship title. “Paddy The Baddy” has a stellar 7-0 record since his UFC debut in 2021, and he’ll be looking to continue his good form and tactical maturity after stoppage wins over Michael Chandler and King Green.
If Pimblett manages to clinch the title this weekend, talks about him being the new face of this subscription-based UFC era would certainly heat up. Justin Gaethje, on the other hand, is still in pursuit of a divisional championship, and given that his longtime coach has publicly announced that Gaethje will all but certainly retire if he suffers a loss on Saturday, the pressure is on – but expect Gaethje to go full steam inside the Octagon.
It’s worth noting that a bantamweight title fight between Kayla Harrison and former two-division champion Amanda Nunes was supposed to co-headline the main card event but was later postponed due to Harrison’s neck injury. Sean O’Malley vs Song Yadong is now the co-main event.
