UFC 242 is taking place this coming Saturday in Abu Dhabi. Because the fights are taking place right next door, the event timings work really well for us with the first fight starting at 9PM on Saturday.
If you want to watch the fights live then the easiest way to do so is by downloading the UFC Arabia app from the Kuwait Apple Store (I’m guessing its the same for Android devices). For $4.99 a month the UFC Arabia app allows you to stream live Pay Per View (PPV) events at no additional cost, in addition to the weigh-ins, post-fight press conferences, and various other videos.
I just signed up to it to try it out based on a recommendation from a friend who already tried it out. The commentary is in English as well not in Arabic. If you can’t find the app in the Apple Store it’s most likely because you’re not in the Kuwait store so make sure you have an Apple account registered with a Kuwait address. Alternatively, you could just go to the UFC Arabia website and sign up there. Link

Do they allow for a one month subscription?. I want to sign up and they say there is a free trial. I always feel after the free trial they auto charge your paypal for a year or something and back out
i signed up for the monthly package
Nevermind, Subscribed. Also no HD Stream?
Nevermind again. Help section says it switched to HD based on your bandwidth
UFC 242 yeah baby
So is joining via the website a solution to not having access to the Kuwaiti app store ?
I think AD sports 4 will show it for free.
