Both of which are undefeated. Adesanya is 19-0 and Costa is currently 13-0, with Adesanya being the reigning middleweight champion. This is a championship bout, and someone is going to be going home, no longer undefeated.<br \/>\nThis is history making tonight. It&#8217;s only the second time in UFC history where two unbeaten fighters have fought for a title. The last time this happened was at UFC 98, way back in May of 2009. Where Rashad Evans and Lyoto Machida faced off for the light heavyweight title.<br \/>\nNeedless to say, this is sure to be an epic battle.<br \/>\nThere are four other fights on the main card tonight as well. With Dominick Reyes vs Jan Blackowicz, Kai Kara-France vs Brandon Royval, Ketlen Vieira vs Sijaara Eubanks and Haleem Daodu vs Zubaira Tukhogov.<br \/>\nUFC 253 &#8211; ESPN+<\/p>\n<p>What time does UFC 253 start?<br \/>\nUFC 253 will technically start at 6:15pm ET with the early prelims which will be broadcast on ESPN+.<br \/>\nAt 8pm ET the prelims will start, and they will move over to ESPN.<br \/>\nWith the main card starting at 10pm ET, and that will be exclusively on ESPN+. You will also need to purchase the PPV to get the main card, which consists of five bouts this time around.<br \/>\nTo purchase the PPV through ESPN+, just open the ESPN app and you should see a pop-up for buying the PPV. It&#8217;ll cost you $64.99 if you are an ESPN+ subscriber and $84.99 if you are not. The $84.99 price includes a year of ESPN+ for $20 (that&#8217;s the difference), which is a really incredible deal. As you&#8217;d normally be paying $5\/month for ESPN+.<br \/>\nThe early prelims and prelims can sometimes be entertaining, but the real fights don&#8217;t start til 10pm ET when the main card starts.<br \/>\nUFC 253 &#8211; ESPN+<br \/>\nWho&#8217;s fighting at UFC 253?<br \/>\nMain card<\/p>\n<p>Israel Adesanya vs. Paulo Costa<br \/>\nDominick Reyes vs. Jan Blachowicz<br \/>\nKai Kara-France vs. Brandon Royval<br \/>\nKetlen Vieira vs. Sijara Eubanks<br \/>\nHakeem Dawodu vs. Zubaira Tukhugov<\/p>\n<p>Preliminary card<\/p>\n<p>Brad Riddell vs. Alex da Silva<br \/>\nDiego Sanchez vs. Jake Matthews<br \/>\nShane Young vs. Ludovit Klein<br \/>\nWilliam Knight vs. Aleksa Camur<\/p>\n<p>Early prelims<\/p>\n<p>Juan Espino vs. Jeff Hughes<br \/>\nKhadis Ibragimov vs. Danilo Marques<\/p>\n<p>How do I watch UFC 253?<br \/>\nUFC 253 will be available exclusively on ESPN+. You&#8217;ll need to be an ESPN+ subscriber, and you also need to purchase the PPV. Otherwise, you&#8217;ll only be able to watch the early prelims.<br \/>\nIf you are an ESPN+ subscriber, the PPV is going to cost you $64.99. If not, you&#8217;re going to need to pay $84.98, which includes the PPV as well as a year subscription to ESPN+. At $20 for the first year, that&#8217;s nearly a third of what ESPN+ would normally cost you.<br \/>\nUFC recently went up on the price of its PPVs by $5. Which is why it is now over $60 for the PPV. But the good thing is, there is an extra fight included with the main card now. Making it worth the extra cash.<br \/>\nWith the yearly subscription to ESPN+, you are also getting access to a ton of other content. Including UFC Fight Night, which also happens once a month. Other UFC shows on ESPN+ include Dana White&#8217;s Contender Series, UFC Post Shows and exclusive analysis on &#8222;Ariel and the Bad Guy&#8221;.<br \/>\nThere&#8217;s plenty of original content from the UFC, NBA, MLB and other sports. In fact, Kobe Bryant, Peyton Manning and Kevin Durant are just a few of the athletes that have their own shows on ESPN+ right now. And there are always more coming to the platform. Not to mention some live games as well. It&#8217;s worth the $5 per month, though at $20 for the entire year, it makes it a steal.<br \/>\nAnd with ESPN+ you also get the ability to watch the PPV on just about any platform you wish. Whether that is Android, Android TV, Chromecast, iOS, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Roku, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, or Samsung and Vizio smart TVs. It&#8217;s everywhere you are. So no matter where you are, you&#8217;ll be able to watch this PPV.<br \/>\nUFC 253 &#8211; ESPN+<br \/>\nThe post How To Watch UFC 253: Adesanya vs. Costa appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ufc-253.png\" width=\"1125\" height=\"633\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UFC 253 returns to Fight Island in Abu Dhabi Tonight, and will see Adesanya vs Costa headlining the pay-per view.
