U.K., Ireland get 'UFC Fight Night 76: Poirier vs. Duffy' free on UFC Fight Pass

UFC officials are making sure fight fans in the U.K. and Ireland have ample opportunity to watch the organization’s upcoming show in Ireland.

Officials today announced UFC Fight Night 76 will be available free via UFC Fight Pass, the UFC’s digital streaming service, to viewers in the U.K. and Ireland. Additionally, Irelish fans can watch the main card on free-to-air channels Setanta Ireland and 3e, and in the U.K., the event broadcasts via delay on Pick.

UFC Fight Night 76, which reportedly sold out in 60 seconds, takes place Oct. 24 at 3Arena in Dublin. Outside the U.K. and Ireland, paid subscribers to UFC Fight Pass can watch the entire card there.

In the lightweight headliner, Irishman Joseph Duffy (14-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC), who’s riding a four-fight winning streak, looks to continue his climb up the UFC ranks when he takes on proven veteran and perennial contender Dustin Poirier (18-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC), who’s 5-1 with four knockouts in his past six bouts.
