Jimmie Rivera takes on Marlon Moraes this weekend and in this guide I’m going to show you how you can watch all the fight action from any country in the world without cable.
UFC Fight Night 131 “Utica” is made up of a host of exciting MMA bouts but without a doubt, the bantamweight fight between Rivera and Moraes is the one that most people want to watch.
Unfortunately though like a lot of high calibre UFC fights it’s restricted to viewing on Fox Sports 1 in the United States. Around the world the situation is even more direr as it’s not even being shown in most countries.
Below I’m going to show you how you can watch the entire fight essentially free on an official stream.
Watch Jimmie Rivera vs Marlon Moraes
Although the Rivera vs Moraes fight is being shown on Fox Sports 1 in the US and not at all in some countries it is being shown completely for free on the Russian TV Network MatchTV!.
Fortunately for you MatchTV! have an online streaming service where you can watch the entire fight free.
Not so fast though because if you visit the website directly from the US or any other country that’s outside Russia then you’ll be blocked from watching.
To unblock the Rivera vs Moraes fight outside Russia you’ll need the help of an additional app called a VPN.
A VPN is an app made to protect your online privacy. One of the features is you can disguise your location. They’re 100% legal and will help you watch Rivera vs Moraes.
Below I’ll show you where to get a VPN and how to use it to watch the Rivera vs Moraes fight anywhere.
How to watch Rivera vs Moraes Step-by-Step
You’ll first need to choose a VPN service. There are 100’s out there but not all work with the MatchTV! website. Two that I’ve tested and work well are:
I recommend using NordVPN because they’re slightly easier to use and I found them to be more reliable, but the choice is yours. Both providers above will cost less than $10 for a full month and are even cheaper if you sign up for longer.
Once you’ve selected one of the two VPN providers above, follow the instructions below.
- Visit your chosen VPN provider, for example, NordVPN by clicking here and sign up for their service.
- Go to the VPN Apps section of their website and download the correct app for your device. The service works on computers, laptop, tablets and mobiles.
- Once the app is downloaded, install it and then run it. Login with your account details when required.
- From the world map locate Russia and click on it. It should automatically connect but if not press the Connect button.
It will take less than 30 seconds for the VPN app to make connection and it will let you know once it has.
Now all you need to do is visit the MatchTV! Live Stream page at the time of the fight and you’ll be able to watch all the Rivera vs Moraes action.
The NordVPN app is really easy to use.
When is Rivera vs Moraes shown
Jimmie Rivera vs Marlon Moraes takes place on June 1st, 2018 and is expected to start around 10 pm EST.
The fight is taking place as part of the UFC Fight Night 131 “Utica” which takes place in New York, United States.
Rivera vs Moraes is a fight that has been coming for a long time with both claiming the other has been scared to face them in the past. This fight is going to happen though and it promises to be huge.
Rivera has already said that the fight feels like a “No. 1 contender fight” and if Rivera can take down Moraes it’ll extend his wins to 6 in a row.
Moraes has technically just transitioned from the newly revamped WSOF but his past results speak for themselves. It could go either way at the Adirondack Bank Center this Friday but with all the trash talking it’s hard to tell the bluster from the reality.
Recap How to watch Rivera vs Moraes
You can watch the entire Jimmie Rivera vs Marlon Moraes fight live online from any country in the world and all you’ll need is a VPN app.
A VPN will allow you to tap into an official overseas stream of the fight and watch all the action without having cable or any kind of subscription service.
Watching on an official stream is so much better than a sketchy stream because not only do they put the security of your device at risk but they also often cut out or buffer at the crucial moments.
VPN apps work for all major devices and you can get my recommended VPN by clicking the button below. Once you’ve got it, download their app, connect to Russia and then enjoy the live stream.
My money is on Rivera winning this one but I’d love to hear what you think and ultimately who you think will win. Why not let me and others know by writing in the comments section below?
