Every UFC card in Ireland, no PPV charges

If you’ve been paying €24.99 for every UFC numbered card on TNT Sports Box Office, you’ve been giving away about €300 a year.

There are roughly 12 numbered UFC events a year. UFC 300, UFC 301, and so on. Each one is a separate pay-per-view in Ireland and the UK. €24.99 a pop.

BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically. Every numbered card. Every Fight Night. Every undercard. Every prelim.

That’s the maths, and that’s the post.

What you actually get with BingeBear and UFC

The numbered cards air on TNT Sports Box Office in Ireland. BingeBear carries TNT Sports Box Office.

The Fight Nights air on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports 2. BingeBear carries both.

The early prelims air on UFC Fight Pass internationally. BingeBear carries the international UFC channels too.

So a Conor McGregor card, for instance, is on the same channel as the casual viewer sees on TNT, but you’re not paying €24.99 to see it. BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically.

The two ways people watch UFC in Ireland today

Way one: TNT Sports. You need a TNT Sports subscription (about €30 a month) plus the €24.99 PPV per numbered card. A year of UFC numbered cards plus the channel works out around €660. That doesn’t include UFC Fight Nights, which need different add-ons.

BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically. €240 a year. You watch every numbered card and every Fight Night and every prelim.

Difference: about €420 a year on UFC alone.

How fast can I be watching?

Five minutes if you’ve got a Firestick, a Smart TV, an iPhone, an iPad or any Android device.

You message us on WhatsApp. We send you the login and a one-line guide for your specific device. You open the recommended player app, sign in, pick TNT Sports Box Office. Done.

What about the big-card nights?

The fight nights with the McGregor / O’Malley / Pereira / Du Plessis / Aldo / Garbrandt names attract about twice the streams of a normal card. We size the servers for them.

If a card is buffering on the night, message the WhatsApp number and we move you to a less-loaded server in 30 seconds. We don’t do automated load-balancing pretending to be a real person. There’s a real person on the WhatsApp.

What if I only want UFC and nothing else?

Fair question. BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically.

But here’s the honest answer: if you genuinely only watch UFC and nothing else, BingeBear is overkill. The maths is in your favour, but you’re paying for 55,000 live channels you’ll never open.

If that sounds like you, fine, message us and we’ll point you at a UFC-only option. We’d rather lose the sale than sell you something you don’t need.

The Conor question

The Conor McGregor comeback fight (whenever it happens, and we’ll update this when it does) will be on PPV in Ireland and the UK. €24.99 or thereabouts, like the rest.

BingeBear will carry it on TNT Sports Box Office the same night. BingeBear has two one-off options: The Taster is €100 for 10 months, and The Owner is €300 for lifetime access. Neither plan renews automatically.

What you don’t get

We don’t have the UFC Fight Pass back-catalogue (every old fight, every contender series). If you’re a Fight Pass die-hard, keep your Fight Pass and add BingeBear for everything else.

Frequently asked questions

Can I watch UFC for free legally in Ireland?

The first 20 minutes of prelims sometimes stream free on UFC’s YouTube channel. The main card and the headline fight always cost. There is no legal free way to watch a full numbered UFC card in Ireland.

What time does the main event start for an Irish viewer?

Most numbered cards start at 3am Irish time on Sunday morning. Some Fight Nights are evening starts. The card schedule is on UFC’s website and BingeBear carries the same airing as TNT.

Does BingeBear show the prelims?

Yes. The early prelims air on the international UFC channels we carry. The TNT prelims air on TNT 1 or 2.

What if it buffers on a fight night?

Message the WhatsApp number on the night. A real person moves you to a different server in under a minute. We don’t do tickets.

Can I record a fight and watch it later?

Yes. Most devices let you pause, rewind and record live. The films-and-on-demand library also picks up Fight Night replays a few days after the event.
