Watch UFC 289 live stream: preview and prediction
The UFC carnival heads to Canada for its first show in the country for four years with a bill headlined by a women's bantamweight title clash between the legendary Amanda Nunes and Mexico's Irene Aldana.
Widely regarded as the best female fighter of all time, Nunes will be making the first defence of her second reign as UFC women’s 135lb champ, having reclaimed the belt from Julianna Pena in last year's rematch.
Tonight's headline event had originally been planned as trilogy bout between Nunes and Peña, however the American was forced to pull out owing to a rib injury, with Aldana drafted in as a late replacement.
A win for Aldana would be seen as a major upset, but the experienced Mexican fighter is not being underestimated by her opponent, with Nunes claiming that Aldana is “more technical” than Peña and praiseing her “knockout power.”
Saturday's co-main event will meanwhile feature an intriguing clash between former UFC Lightweight Champion Charles Oliveira and Beneil Dariush. Oliveira is looking to bounce back from his loss to current champ Islam Makhachev at UFC 280, while Dariush is on an eight-fight winning streak and will be hoping this fight leads to a title showdown with Makhachev.
The main card starts at 10pm ET / 3am BST. The Nunes vs Aldana cagewalks are expected at around 1am ET / 6am BST. Follow our guide below as we explain how to watch a UFC 289 live stream, so you can catch Nunes vs Aldana and the rest in the Octagon, from anywhere.

Who is Amanda Nunes?
Often cited as the the greatest female fighter in MMA history, Nunes is a reigning two-division UFC champion at Featherweight and Bantamweight.
Currently ranked number 1 in the UFC women's pound-for-pound rankings and now in her 15th year as a professional MMA fighter, Nunes stands as the only fighter to have defended two UFC titles while holding both.
Who is Irene Aldana?
Hailing from Culiacán, in Sinaloa, Mexico, Aldana made her professional MMA debut in 2012 and quickly gained attention for her striking abilities and relentless fighting style.
Making her UFC debut four years later, Aldana's career has seen many peaks and troughs, but the 35-year-old appears to have regained form and purpose following two big wins in a row, having stunned Yana Santos with her boxing skills before delivering an impressively creative heel-kick KO of Macy Chiasson to set up this title fight.
Nunes vs Aldana: who is favorite to win?
