Apple Sports has added support for UFC events, giving iPhone users live results, round-by-round updates, detailed fighter stats, and visual strike tracking just ahead of UFC 334 this Saturday.
The free Apple Sports app, updated on Thursday, November 12, 2026, now includes the full card of men’s and women’s fights for every UFC event, from early prelims through the main card. Users can view pre-fight information such as the tale of the tape (height, weight, age, reach, and stance), win-loss-draw records, and current fighter rankings. Fighter cards use background colors that reflect each athlete’s country.
Once fights begin, the app delivers real-time statistics including significant strikes, total strikes, takedowns, knockdowns, submission attempts, and control time. An animated strike heat map shows where hits land as the action unfolds, complemented by enhanced data visualizations and dynamic on-screen animations designed for the UFC experience.
Live Activities push fight updates to the iPhone Lock Screen and Apple Watch, while Game Card Sharing lets users easily send matchups to friends and family. To follow UFC, users can add the organization to their personalized home feed by tapping the Home icon, selecting Edit, and choosing UFC from the list; the main event is highlighted in the preview.
The timing aligns with UFC 334 on Saturday, November 14th, headlined by Ciryl Gane defending the Heavyweight Championship against Josh Hokit, with Kayla Harrison defending the Women’s Bantamweight title against Amanda Nunes. The same update also expanded soccer coverage with the Chinese Super League, Russian Premier League, and Sweden’s Allsvenskan.
Apple Sports, which launched in 2024 and already covers major leagues including the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and others, continues to broaden its sports lineup with a focus on clean, real-time scores and stats. The UFC integration marks a notable expansion into combat sports, pairing the app’s straightforward interface with fight-specific tools like the strike map and comprehensive card tracking.
