UFC 279 is taking place tonight at 7pm ET / 10pm PT (that's 3am BST). If you want to catch all the action then the early prelims will begin at 3pm PT / 6pm ET (or 11pm BST). We're showing you how to watch UFC 279 where you are anywh🐓ere in the world. 

A new era could be dawning at UFC 279 if former undefeated champion Nurmagomdeov has anything to say about it. Relative new blood to the Ultimate Fighting Championship, Khamzat Chimaev takes on the tough-as-nails Nate Diaz in a bout that could see the 28-year-old with a title shot at Leon Edwards later down the line. Borz has yet to concede in his professional MMA career with 1🎀1 wins under his belt to date (five of which within the organization). The Swedish wrestler has built up an established reputation for himself over the years, but it's safe to say that Diaz is Borz's biggest challenge to date.

  • Now, the momentum for the Welterweight division doesn't stop there at UFC 279. There's also the bout between Li Jingliang and Tony Ferguson to gear up for as well. The Leech and El Cucuy will clash for the first time. The latter of which is reeling from a four-loss streak, so tonight will tell if Jingliang will add to the slate or not. It's worth remembering that the former lost to Chimaev last year, via 🎀first-round submission. A win tonight could put him in the conversation alongside Edwards, Usman, and our main event fighters. 

    Of course, there is much more to be exciteꦗd about happening at UFC 279, including the Women's Bantamweight bout between Irene Aldana and Macy Chiasson as well as Johnny Walker and Ion Cutelaba going at it in the Light Heavyweight division, too. As far as PPVs go, this is shaping up to be one of the best MMA events of the year.
