UFC 304 — Your practical guide to watch, attend and follow every moment

UFC 304 is one of the big dates on the fight calendar this season. Whether you want to stream the main card, score last-minute tickets, or follow the undercard storylines, this guide gives clear, useful steps so you don’t miss anything. No fluff — just what matters for fans in Africa and beyond.

How to watch UFC 304

Want to watch live? The easiest route is UFC Fight Pass or the event’s regional pay-per-view partner. In the US the PPV often runs on ESPN+; in other regions check the UFC site for local rights. In many African countries sports networks like SuperSport or regional broadcasters carry major UFC cards — check your local TV guide a few days before the event.

Prefer streaming? Buy the PPV through the official UFC store or your local streaming partner. Make sure your VPN or connection is not blocking the stream if you travel. Test the stream at least an hour before the first prelim — buffering at bell time is the worst.

Tickets, venues and travel tips

Buying tickets: use the official UFC ticket page, Ticketmaster, or the venue’s box office. Avoid resale sites that look too good to be true. If seats are scarce, set alerts and be ready when tickets drop; big cards can sell out fast.

On fight day: arrive early for security checks and bag inspections. Bring photo ID, a printed or mobile ticket, and small cash for food. Wear comfortable shoes — expect long queues for merchandise and toilets. If you’re coming from another city, plan for post-fight traffic; rideshares can surge in price after the event.

Weigh-ins and open workouts are gold for fans. They’re usually public or livestreamed and offer the last real look at a fighter’s condition. If you can, go to the weigh-in — it’s a great photo and atmosphere moment.

What to expect on fight night: undercard fights set the tone. Keep an eye on rising prospects — they often move up fast after a standout win. Main events tend to capture headlines, but the early rounds can show which fighters have cardio or a tactical edge.

Betting and predictions: check odds close to fight time; late scratches and weigh-in drama move lines. If you bet, use licensed sportsbooks and set a clear stake you can afford to lose. Look for value bets rather than backing favorites blindly.

Follow live updates: Africa Daily Dispatch will share round-by-round coverage, results, and injury news. For the quickest updates, follow our social feeds during the card.
