How to Watch UFC 184 (Overeem vs. Volkov) From Anywhere 2021

Sick of not being able to watch the latest UFC fights in your country? I know your pain. I spent days testing super confusing tutorials — most of which don’t work.

But don’t tap out just yet — I found a working solution to watch UFC fights in countries that don’t show it. A VPN is an app that hides your true location and tricks internet services into thinking you are in a different location. By using a VPN, I could trick UFC into thinking I was in the US/UK where it is broadcasted, which allowed me to live-stream fights online.

To save you time, I made a really quick and simple guide on how to watch UFC 184 from any location. It’ll only take you a few minutes to set up and you can catch all the Overeem vs. Volkov action as if you were ringside!

Quick Guide: Watch UFC 184 — Overeem vs. Volkov From Anywhere in 3 Steps

  1. Get a trusted VPN. 
  2. Connect to a US/UK server. Choose a server location that is showing UFC 184. The US and the UK both have streaming services that show the latest UFC fights.
  3. Start watching UFC 184! Log into your sport streaming provider and catch Overeem vs. Volkov.

Why You Need a VPN to Watch Overeem vs. Volkov

In short, VPNs can help you unblock geo-restricted content. By using a VPN, you can mask your current location and make it appear as if you’re in a different country. This enables you to sign up for streaming services that aren’t available in your location (such as US-based ESPN+) and watch the latest UFC fights.

As a frequent traveler, I use a VPN to ensure I can access UFC fights no matter where I am in the world. It helps me hide my true location and make it seem like I’m in a permitted country to access the UFC.

Where Can I Watch UFC 184 Online?

UFC Fight Pass

The easiest way to watch UFC live and on demand is with a UFC Fight Pass. The UFC Fight Pass is available globally apart from Brazil. If you’re in the US, you can sign up for a Fight Pass but you can’t watch live matches — you have to wait a month for matches to be uploaded to Fight Pass as ESPN+ has exclusive rights to streaming UFC in the US.

If you live in Brazil or the US you can use a VPN to unblock the UFC Fight Pass in your country instead. That gives you full access to live events, a library of past matches, and original content. You can subscribe to a monthly or annual package and the Fight Pass app is available on iOS, Android, Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, games consoles, and more.

ESPN+

UFC events are exclusive to ESPN+ in the US. ESPN+ is ESPN’s sports streaming service and requires a monthly subscription. It has a special UFC bundle that gets you access to the whole channel plus one UFC PPV event at no additional cost. You have to pay for any further PPV events as normal.

Unlike other ESPN channels, ESPN+ is not available on rival streaming providers like Sling TV, YouTube TV, fuboTV, or Hulu. It’s geo-restricted to US viewers — you need a US payment method to sign up.

You can watch the fight on almost any device, including Windows PC, Mac, iPhone, Android, iPad and iPod Touch, Smart TVs, Chromecast, Fire TV, and Fire Stick.

While you can watch the UFC on most devices, you may not be able to stream the latest fight in your location due to geo-restrictions. In this instance, you’ll need to use a reliable VPN to get around the geo-blocks.

? What are the best streaming sites to watch UFC 184 from anywhere?

There are many streaming sites that show the latest UFC fights, including ESPN+, DAZN, BT Sports, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.

It’s worth noting that to watch the latest UFC PPV fights via ESPN+ and other streaming services, you’ll have to make a separate one-time purchase on top of your subscription. However, BT Sports seems to be showing the latest UFC fights to its subscribers at no extra cost.

If you’re in a country where these streaming services aren’t available, you’ll need a VPN. VPNs make it appear as if you’re in another location, which is why they’re useful for accessing streaming services and content that are blocked in your country. But it’s really important that you only use a trusted VPN that actually works.

Get Yourself Ready for Overeem vs. Volkov!

UFC 184 starts at 3:00 AM Eastern European Time. So, make sure you’ve got your VPN and streaming service set up and ready to rumble!

But remember to only use a trusted VPN with a proven track record of streaming the UFC and other live sports in HD — the last thing you want is to miss key fight highlights because of lag or buffering.

From my test results, HolaVPN is the best VPN for watching UFC. It’s super fast and has reliable connections so you can enjoy a smooth streaming experience in full HD. You can even try it risk-free for 30 days using its money-back guarantee and get a refund if you’re not satisfied.

BT Sport

If you’re based in the UK, you can watch UFC matches on BT Sport. BT Sport is available on some Sky TV packages, as well as on Virgin’s TV XL package. It’s also included if you have an existing BT Broadband subscription.

If you don’t have any of these plans, you can subscribe to BT Sport directly and watch UFC online. However, BT Sport is geo-restricted outside of the UK and you need to have a UK address to sign up for an account as BT sends you your account number via post.

DAZN

The sports streaming service DAZN broadcasts UFC events in Japan and in EU countries including Spain, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. While DAZN is usually available in the UK, US, Canada, and Brazil too, it doesn’t stream UFC events in those countries as the broadcasting rights are held by other providers.

You can only sign up for and use DAZN from one of these countries. I was unable to sign up for a new DAZN account using my VPN as you need a payment method that matches the country you’re signing up from.

TSN

If you’re based in Canada, you can watch UFC events on TSN as it’s partnered with ESPN. TSN is included in some cable plans or via subscription to its streaming service TSN Direct. TSN Direct is available on desktop, mobile, Samsung Smart TV, Apple TV, and Xbox One.

TSN Direct is geoblocked to Canada and you need a Canadian payment method to sign up.

Step-By-Step Guide to Sign Up for the UFC Fight Pass to Watch UFC 184

  1. Get a VPN that can bypass the UFC Fight Pass geoblocks. HolaVPN was the best at unblocking Fight Pass in my tests, plus it gave me lightning-fast speeds so I could watch live matches with no lag.
  2. Connect to a VPN server in a country where the UFC Fight Pass is available. Choose any country except Brazil (where the Fight Pass is blocked) or the US (where you can’t watch live matches).
  3. Go to the UFC Fight Pass site. Click “Sign Up” to start creating your account.
  4. Fill out the registration form. Make sure the country you choose matches the server you connected to.
  5. Choose your plan. You can pick a monthly subscription or save 20% with an annual subscription. Both plans give you access to live early prelims and live main cards.
  6. Fill out your payment information. I was able to sign up using my own card.
  7. Complete your registration and enjoy! Start watching UFC live and on demand, no matter where you’re based.

Why Free VPNs Aren’t Good for Watching UFC 184

In most cases, free VPNs are very slow, have unreliable server connections, and they can sometimes fail to mask your real location — meaning streaming services will block you from watching the latest UFC fights if you’re not in a country that’s licensed to show them.

Free VPNs can also carry dangerous privacy and security risks. They are notorious for leaking private user data, leaving hackers to intercept data for malicious purposes. For example, hackers who can see that you regularly stream the UFC on ESPN+ could target you with fake UFC or ESPN+ phishing scams — tricking you into giving away your personal information or downloading malware onto your device.

My advice: don’t take the risk or waste time with free VPNs. Many reputable VPNs (like HolaVPN) offer a 30-day money-back guarantee so if you don’t want to keep your VPN after watching UFC 184, simply request a full refund to get your money back.

FAQs on Watching the UFC With a VPN

Can you watch UFC 184 from overseas for free?

Technically yes, but you’ll need to use a VPN (Virtual Private Network) that has a track record of getting around geo-restrictions. It will help you appear as if you’re located in a country that’s showing UFC 184 (even if you aren’t). I recommend HolaVPN as it’s never failed me in accessing UFC fights from abroad (plus you can try it for free for 30 days).

You’ll also need to have a subscription to a streaming service that is showing UFC, such as ESPN+ or BT Sports. Most of these services are paid, and in most cases you will have to purchase a separate one-time pass to watch UFC fights. However, some streaming services offer free trials, including:

  • Sling TV — 3-day free trial, but you’ll have to pay separately for UFC PPV fights.
  • YouTube TV — 7-day free trial, but you’ll have to pay extra for each live UFC PPV fight.

? Why do I need a VPN to watch the UFC?

Many streaming services block other countries from watching the UFC. For example, if you’re outside the US, you won’t be able to stream the UFC using US-based streaming services like ESPN+.

To unblock location-restricted content, you’ll need a VPN. A VPN will help you to appear as if you’re in the country where the UFC is being shown. For example, a VPN will make it look like you’re based in the US, when you’re actually based in Asia or Europe.

Not all VPNs work well so it’s important that you choose a reliable VPN that will actually work when streaming the UFC from a different country.

What devices can you use to watch UFC 184?

You can watch the fight on almost any device, including Windows PC, Mac, iPhone, Android, iPad and iPod Touch, Smart TVs, Chromecast, Fire TV, and Fire Stick.

While you can watch the UFC on most devices, you may not be able to stream the latest fight in your location due to geo-restrictions. In this instance, you’ll need to use a reliable VPN to get around the geo-blocks.
