UFC 285 live stream: preview
UFC 285 marks the return to Octagon action for Jon Jones after a three-year hiatus, with “Bones” not fighting since his win over Dominick Reyes in February 2020.
Jones was previously dominant at Light Heavyweight, with a superior record of 26-1 wins, but his career has been clouded by three drug bans.
The 35-year-old now moves up to Heavyweight for the first time, with No. 1 contender Ciryl Gane standing in the American’s way to claim the coveted title.
In Jones’ time away from the sport, French star Gane has scalped a string of big names, including Alexander Volkov, Derrick Lewis and Jairzinho Rozenstruik, with the former light-heavyweight champion becoming a formidable opponent for the likely rusty Jones.
Also on Saturday’s bill, Valentina Shevchenko defends her 125-pound title against her first challenger Alexa Grasso for the eighth time.
The main card of UFC 285: Jones vs Gane is expected to kick off at 2pm AEDT / 3am GMT / 10pm ET / 7pm PT at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday, March 4. Make sure you know how watch a live stream of UFC 285 by following our guide below.
