How to order UFC 257 PPV: McGregor vs. Poirier on ESPN Plus

On January 23, Conor McGregor returns to the Octagon in the UFC 257 main event. The former two-division champion will step back inside the cage for the first time since defeating Donald Cerrone in just 40 seconds in January last year.

At UFC 257, McGregor will face former interim lightweight champion Dustin Poirier in a fight that will likely determine who goes on to compete for the UFC Lightweight Championship next. For Poirier, it’ll be an opportunity to avenge his earlier defeat to McGregor at UFC 178 in September 2014.

UFC 257 is a pay-per-view event and that means fans will be required to order the event via the official ESPN website.

In 2019, the UFC finalized a deal with ESPN that would see all live UFC pay-per-view events move to the ESPN+ digital streaming service. It’s no longer possible to order and watch UFC PPV events via traditional cable or satellite providers.

All UFC PPV events — including UFC 257 — can only be viewed live on ESPN+.

An ESPN+ subscription is required to access the UFC 257 event as well as all other live UFC PPV events in 2021. ESPN+ is a digital streaming service that enables fans to watch live sports and shows on their TV’s, computers, laptops, phones, and other smart devices.
