Fans in the United States will get a traditional Saturday night schedule, while viewers in the United Kingdom will once again need to stay up into the early hours for the main card.
The preliminary card is scheduled to begin at 6:00 PM ET, with the main card starting three hours later at 9:00 PM ET. In the UK, that translates to an 11:00 PM BST start for the prelims and 2:00 AM BST for the main card.
Netflix subscribers will be able to stream the full main card exclusively through the platform. The prelims, meanwhile, will be available through Netflixâs Tudum companion site and MVP MMAâs official YouTube channel.
This marks Netflixâs first move into MMA after previously hosting several boxing events, including Jake Paulâs fight with Mike Tyson and Tyson Furyâs recent comeback bout against Arslanbek Makhmudov.
