How can you watch UFC 289? UK start time, channel details and fight card details

UFC 289 will take place this weekend where Amanda Nunes will defend her title against Irene Aldana.

The event was initally meant to showcase Nunes vs Julianna Pena, until the she was forced to pull out with an injury in May. Aldana has now taken her place and this will be the Mexican national's first UFC title clash.

It's expected to be a tough night for Aldana up against 35-year-old double champion Nunes. Nunes is the only woman to ever hold two titles in the promotion and has beaten several major names in the business over the years including Cris Cyborg, Ronda Rousey and Valentina Shevchenko.

There has been talk that Nunes could be ready to retire and so fans might want to tune in this weekend to see one of the greats of the sport in action for what could be one of the final times.
