Later today, two-time light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones is finally making his return to the Octagon after three years out of the game. His comeback also marks his debut at heavyweight, where he’ll face Ciryl Gane for the recently-vacated UFC Heavyweight Championship. UFC 285 is a high-stakes pay-per-view event, and for that, there’s only one option: ESPN+. You have a couple of ways to get it, though, so if you’re looking to watch the UFC 285 live stream, here’s everything you need to know, including how much ESPN+ and your (virtual) UFC 285 PPV ticket will cost you.

Watch the Jones vs Gane live stream from abroad with a VPN
UFC fans living abroad might have trouble access the UFC 285 live stream, as this event, like many live sporting events, is limited by region-based broadcasting restrictions. One way you can bypass these geographic limitations is with a virtual private network. A VPN encrypts your connection and routes it through remote servers, thereby masking your IP address and making it appear as if you’re logged on from a different location. Of course, you want to stick with a trusted VPN that’s fast and stable enough to handle streaming. NordVPN is one of the best VPN services for this. It’s speedy, reliable, easy to use, and quite affordable with plans as low as $4.20 per month if you’re willing to pay in advance for the two-year plan. Aside from letting you bypass geo-restrictions, NordVPN also provides an excellent suite of features that keep your online activities private and secure.
