Aljamain Sterling and Sean O'Malley will meet inside the octagon for a UFC 292 main event to decide the UFC Bantamweight champion. We'll also see Zhang Weili and Amanda Lemos do battle for the Women's Strawweight title. There are many other fights leading up to these main events, so we'll show you how to watch UFC 292 live streams in the US, UK, and more.

The main card pay-per-view livestream is exclusive to ESPN+ members in the US, but if you're outside the country, you can tap into a few international viewing options. We'll also guide you step-by-step on how to use a VPN to watch UFC 292, no matter where you are. You might even find some of the international viewing options we've found are cheaper than your home country, and a VPN is a great way to save on pricy PPV fees.

How to watch UFC 292 everywhere else

If you're not in the US, you still have a few options to watch UFC 292. The fight is available to watch in the UK with TNT Sports, available as a £30 per month add-on for most major TV providers in the country (including BT, Discovery+, EE, Sky, and Virgin).

In the UK, big numbered UFC events aren't usually locked behind a separate PPV paywall (unless McGregor makes a comeback, that is). Instead, they exist as a part of a regular monthly subscription service. UFC is now on TNT Sports (the new name of BT Sport), but you can still get it for a very affordable price at just £30 a month on a one-month rolling contract. You'll find TNT Sports at this price on the premium Discovery Plus package, which includes access to TNT Sports. The prelims and main card will air on TNT Sports 1.

You can download the Discovery Plus app on Android, iOS, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, Samsung, LG, PlayStation, and Xbox. You can also stream it through any web browser.

In Canada, UFC 292 will be available as a pay-per-view through most TV providers and directly via UFC Fight Pass. The pay-per-view costs $65.

The UFC 292 main event is available on UFC Fight Pass in most other regions too, including Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Switzerland, Asia, Africa, and Brazil. Check local provider listings for other main event and prelim viewing options.

Even if you're outside any of the above locations, you can still access the fight no matter where you are with a VPN. A VPN, which stands for virtual private network, bypasses geo-restrictions so you can stream UFC 292 through services carrying the fight without being in the US, UK, or Canada. A VPN also provides users with a more secure internet connection. 

Our top recommendation for the best VPN service is ExpressVPN. New members can get a 30-day money-back guarantee, and your first year is 49% off, plus an extra three months thrown in free for good measure. If you'd like to learn more about the app, take a look at our detailed ExpressVPN review.
