The latest big-name MMA fight is scheduled for Saturday, May 3. UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Figueiredo is sure to draw a big crowd when it takes place.
US: ESPN Plus | Disney Plus | ESPN2
UK: TNT Sports
AU: Kayo Sports
Both the American Sandhagen and the Brazilian Figueiredo come off losses at the end of last year, with the former having a winning streak broken by Nurmagomedov in August and the latter stopped in his tracks by Yan in November.
Figueiredo was a reigning champion of the flyweight but 18 months ago he made the shift to bantamweight, which is where he meets Sandhagen.
Sandhagen has been a strong force in UFC for a while, even after the recent loss, and as the fourth highest-rated bantamweight fighter right now he's currently a spot ahead of Figueiredo.
Sandhagen vs Figueiredo takes place at the Wells Fargo Arena, marking the first ever fight in Des Moines, Iowa. There's a packed fight card which you'll be able to find below.

How to watch UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Figueiredo in the UK
The UFC Fight Night takes place at an unsocial hour in the UK: the prelims begin at midnight and the fight card itself begins at 3 am (that's on Sunday, May 3).
You can watch the Sandhagen vs Figueiredo Fight Night by using TNT Sports, which is a paid set of TV channels (though there's also a streaming service option if you'd prefer to watch it through your phone, smart TV or computer).
To get the TV channels you have to sign up for a package with Virgin Media, BT, EE, Now or Sky TV which includes it. These vary quite a bit in price.
If you don't want to sign up for an entire new TV package, broadband bundle or phone line, then you can stream TNT Sports content by using the streaming service Discovery Plus. This has three tiers and the top one lets you stream TNT Sports videos, but it costs £30.99 per month so it's not cheap.
How to watch UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Figueiredo in Australia
Australian UFC fans will be able to watch Sandhagen vs Figueiredo on the streaming service Kayo Sports. Like other UFC Fight Night events it's part of the basic subscription, and isn't PPV unlike numbered UFC fights.
Kayo Sports costs $25 per month for its basic subscription which lets you stream on a single device at a time. The Premium plan costs $40 per month and lets you stream on two devices simultanously, and it also offers 4K streaming of certain events, though not UFC Fight Night.
The fight card begins at midday AEST on Sunday, May 4, with the prelims kicking things off three hours prior.
How to watch UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Figueiredo everywhere else
If you live elsewhere in the world, you'll be able to find UFC Fight Night: Sandhagen vs Figueiredo on various different streaming services or channels. This is because UFC has loads of different international broadcast deals in place, depending on region.
As far as I can tell, UFC's website doesn't have a list of these broadcasters, so I'd use this section on Wikipedia as a guide on where to look in your region.
I'd recommend checking with the streaming service that it's going to air the fight before signing up. This might be quite easy as most streamers either advertise upcoming events via social media, or host landing pages for the events.
