There’s a brand new way to live stream UFC 236, and it comes with a deal that’s quite possibly too good to pass up.

Thanks to a new seven-year deal, UFC pay-per-views will stream exclusively on ESPN+, the network’s new subscription service, while the preliminary bouts will air on ESPN and the undercard, as always, will be available on UFC Fight Pass.

You certainly won’t want to miss this one. Dustin Poirier made Max Holloway submit in his UFC debut in 2012, but since then, Holloway has lit UFC on fire. The Hawaiian featherweight champion is one of the most popular fighters in the world—especially online—and he’s moving up in weight for this chance at redemption. For Poirier, it’s his first title shot and a chance to catch lightning in a bottle twice.

Elsewhere on the card, undefeated middleweight Israel Adesanya, who’s won an incredible five bouts in the last 12 months, takes on Kelvin Gastelum for the interim middleweight title. You’ll also see Eryk Anders vs. Khalil Rountree, Max Griffin vs. Zelim Imadaev, and Boston Salmon vs. Khalid Taha.

Here’s everything you need to know to watch UFC 236 online.
