2021 UFC TV Preview
The Ultimate Fighting Championship was first set up in the early nineties. The aim was to bring fighters together from different disciplines such as Boxing, Thai Boxing, Judo and Jujitsu to fight in a no-holds-barred knock-out contest over the course of one evening. For many years the sport was banned in most countries until rule changes brought it more in line with other Martial Art forms. Move forward to 2021 and UFC fighters are some of the most skilled in the world, often mastering several disciplines including kickboxing, karate and wrestling. Contests are either decided on submission, knock-out or a points calculation after several rounds.
UFC’s most regular event, Fight Night takes place on average three times a month, throughout the year in locations all over the world. These events highlight the best in up and coming UFC talent, alongside more established veterans, all hoping to move on to the all-important World Title shot. The UFC has produced some household names in the fight game over the years such as Conor McGregor, John Jones and Rober Whittaker, and you won’t have to miss a key moment of the next exciting contest when mobile streaming the UFC should you have to be out and about.
