UFC Seattle is almost here! For the second consecutive year, MMA’s No. 1 promotion makes a trip to the Pacific Northwest for the final edition of UFC Fight Night in the month of March.

Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, the home ice for the NHL’s Seattle Kraken, plays host to the second card in Washington State in as many years this Saturday night. Live coverage of this week’s show begins in the late afternoon at 5 pm ET/ 2 pm PT on Paramount Plus with the prelims.

Main card action at Climate Pledge Arena caps off the evening at 8 pm ET/ 5 pm PT. Earlier Friday morning, the official weigh-in window for UFC Seattle took place. Unlike last week’s weigh-ins for UFC London, which saw an undercard fight get postponed after Luana Carolina missed weight, today’s weigh-in window went according to plan.
