UFC 324 live stream: how to watch Gaethje vs Pimblett, start time, preview, full card

  • UFC 324: Saturday, January 24
  • Main Card time: 9pm ET / 6pm ET / 2am GMT (Sun) / 1pm AEDT (Sun)
  • Watch on Paramount Plus for $8.99 (US only)
  • Abroad? Use NordVPN to watch your US services from anywhere

UFC 324 live streams will see the much-anticipated Justin Gaethje vs Paddy Pimblett match in the main event slot at the T-Mobile Arena, as the two battle it out in Las Vegas for the interim Lightweight Championship in current no. 1 Ilia Topuria’s absence – and there’s a sneaky way to watch UFC 324 for free.

Gaethje has been here before, taking the interim title six years ago at UFC 249. He’s tasted defeat three times since that night in Jacksonville, and this might be his last shot at UFC gold. Pimblett, on the other hand, is a star in the rise and the Brit has yet to lose in the organization since his 2021 debut. Can he now add a championship to his vast popularity around the world?

This weekend’s main card also sees two of UFC’s best bantamweights – Sean O’Malley and Song Yadong – return to the Octagon after long layoffs to stake their claim to challenge for Petr Yan’s recently re-acquired title. While Natália Silva vs Rose Namajunas headlines the women’s action.

With Paramount Plus picking up the coverage for the first time in the US, here’s where to watch UFC 324 live streams online and from anywhere with a VPN.
