UFC fans are getting another way to track matches, stats and fighters on their Apple devices. On Thursday, Apple announced the addition of the sports organization to the Apple Sports app, which joins a lineup that already includes NHL, NFL, NBA, MLB, college sports, golf and other leagues. This launch comes just ahead of UFC 334 on Saturday, where the main event is Ciryl Gane versus Josh Hokit.
Fans can follow fight night match cards that show every bout, from preliminaries to the main event. Click on details for individual matches to find fighter information such as weight, height, reach and win-loss-draw records, with background colors that indicate the fighter’s country. Apple Sports is also supplying live stats during the event and an animated strike map shows where hits land as you watch in real time. Additionally, you’ll be able to keep up with the action using the Live Activities feature, which displays match info and updates across your Apple devices.
To add UFC to your dashboard, click the Home icon and tap Edit, then select UFC from the dropdown list. Your home screen will now include a feed for scheduled UFC matches, with the main event highlighted in the preview. Want it at the top?
