Install VPN for Safe Streaming
UFC 260 is a Pay Per View (PPV) event. You can legally watch UFC 260 through UFC Network, UFC Fight Pass, or the UFC App as well as through a PPV purchase with your cable operator.
In addition, UFC also broadcasts UFC Fight Nights on ESPN+. Unfortunately, ESPN+ is not available all over the world even if you have an account. If you try to access the channel outside of the US, you’re likely to get the message “We’re sorry, an unexpected error occurred”.
But you don’t need to worry. A good VPN service will sort not only this problem but also many other important issues. I recommend ExpressVPN for its competitive pricing, global coverage through multiple servers in several countries, and reliable end-to-end encryption that ensures privacy and anonymity. It will let you access ESPN+ if it doesn’t operate in your country otherwise.
Installing a reliable VPN will keep your online activities secure and private. The ISP and government agencies will not get a chance to extract your browsing history and personal information.
ExpressVPN servers have to follow a strict Zero-Log policy according to which they can’t save users’ activity logs. The end-to-end encryption protects your device from hackers who often silently access a device connected to public WiFi networks.
ExpressVPN is good for bypassing geo-restrictions because it has a huge network of servers with multiple servers in each country where it operates. It lets you easily access the geo-restricted apps and plugins to stream your favorite content.
ExpressVPN offers unlimited speed protecting your internet connection from speed throttling. ISPs are notorious for limiting internet speed for their users during peak hours and streaming geeks suffer the most. However, with the help of a good VPN, you can enjoy buffer-free streaming around the clock.
Here’s how to install ExpressVPN on Amazon Firestick.
How to Watch UFC 260 on Firestick with an app
ESPN+ App
I’ve already mentioned that ESPN+ doesn’t operate in many countries, in fact, it doesn’t broadcast outside the United States. If you are in the US, you can easily download and install this premium application to watch UFC 260 Miocic vs Ngannou 2 on Firestick.
If you live outside the United States, make sure to install a reliable VPN service that has servers in the US. Remember, most of the free VPNs don’t have premium servers in the US.
When using Firestick, you simply need to run the VPN and then visit the ESPN+ website. This is a paid service so you will have to subscribe for $59.99/Year to start enjoying ESPN+. However, the subscription starts with a free trial for a few days so you can test it before making a decision.
- Once on the ESPN+ website, hit Sign Up Now
- Select Sign Up and fill in the fields to create your account
- Provide details of payment
- Return to Firestick Home
- Click on Magnifying Glass (Search)
- Search for ESPN+ and select the following App
- Hit Get or Download
- Open the App after it is installed and then provide login details to start streaming ESPN+ on Firestick
UFC Fight Pass
You need to remember that UFC Fight Pass can broadcast live UFC events outside the United States. The reason is that ESPN+ has the exclusive rights to broadcast UFC live within the United States.
UFC Fight Pass is ok for outside the US since it doesn’t delay broadcasting. You can use Fight Pass credentials to stream UFC 260 on Firestick. UFC Fight Pass works with any Android TV box or even Android TV and you can simply download the app from the Play Store.
Note: UFC Fight Pass doesn’t operate in Brazil. If you are from Brazil, you must use a VPN to bypass regional restrictions.
ESPN (Free Method)
To watch the prelims of UFC 260 for free on Firestick, you can do it through Amazon Silk Browser. Before using this method, make sure that a VPN is running on the device.
- Launch Firestick Home and then select Search
- Search for Amazon Silk Browser
- Install Amazon Silk Browser and then open it
- In the address bar, type tv/category/sports or livetv.sx/enx
Wait for the time when UFC 260 airs on ESPN and then open ESPN to watch it for free
DAZN
DAZN is an excellent solution for sports in general. This monthly streaming sports app offers access to lots of content and in some regions, you can also access UFC 260 on it. In Canada, the US, UK, and Brazil, the fight is not available, but using a VPN and selecting countries in the EU like Italy, Spain, Germany, and Switzerland opens up your options considerably.
Conclusion
I recommend you only use the legal and legitimate methods to watch UFC 260 on Firestick on any other streaming platform. Copyright violations are serious offenses and the punishment could be quite severe. For anonymous and safe streaming, there is nothing better than a reliable VPN service.
