Combat sports fans get a full two-night run in Las Vegas, starting with the launch of Zuffa Boxing 01 on Friday, January 23, at the Meta Apex (formerly UFC Apex) the night before UFC 324. The debut card is an eight-fight show headlined by Irish middleweight contender Callum Walsh against experienced Mexican campaigner Carlos Ocampo, and it is positioned as the first move in a new boxing project backed by Dana White and TKO Group.

UFC 324: Gaethje vs. Pimblett kicks off the Paramount+ era
UFC 324: Gaethje vs. Pimblett follows on Saturday, January 24, from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, opening the UFC’s new media rights deal with Paramount. It is the first numbered event in the U.S. to move off the traditional pay-per-view model and onto a subscription service since UFC 267, with every bout included in a standard Paramount+ plan. The card is built around an interim lightweight title fight between former interim champion Justin Gaethje and Liverpool’s Paddy Pimblett after reigning champion Ilia Topuria opted out of fighting in the first quarter of 2026.
In the U.S., early prelims are set for 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT), prelims for 7 p.m. ET (4 p.m. PT) and the main card for 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PT), all streaming live on Paramount+ with English, Spanish and Portuguese options. UK fans can buy UFC 324 on TNT Sports Box Office for £19.99, with streaming via discovery+ and standard Box Office outlets on Sky, BT and Virgin Media; a regular TNT Sports subscription is not required. The main card is advertised for 2 a.m. GMT, with prelims at midnight GMT and early prelims at 10 p.m. GMT on Saturday night into Sunday morning.
The main card features Gaethje vs. Pimblett for the interim lightweight belt, with Sean O’Malley facing Song Yadong in a three-round bantamweight co-main after Kayla Harrison’s title defence against Amanda Nunes was postponed due to a neck injury.
Heavyweight contender Waldo Cortes-Acosta meets Derrick Lewis, Natália Silva faces Rose Namajunas at flyweight, and Arnold Allen takes on Jean Silva at featherweight. The prelims and early prelims are deep with names: Umar Nurmagomedov vs. Deiveson Figueiredo, Ateba Gautier vs. Andrey Pulyaev, Nikita Krylov vs. Modestas Bukauskas, Alex Perez vs. Charles Johnson, Michael Johnson vs. Alexander Hernandez, Josh Hokit vs. Denzel Freeman, Ricky Turcios vs. Cameron Smotherman and Adam Fugitt vs. Ty Miller all fill out the undercard. Every fight on the schedule will be available live on Paramount+ in the U.S. and through local broadcast partners worldwide.
