Get ready to load up with ESPN+, ESPN2, and ESPN Pay-Per-View for full card coverage.
The UFC usually has major championship bouts to headline their Pay-Per-View events, but this time things are going to be a little different. Two fighters both have credentials as potentially the baddest battlers working the octagon nowadays. The UFC took the challenge between them to heart, and has created something new to honor their showdown. If you want in, you don't need vicious credentials, or cable TV. You can see this instant classic by streaming UFC 244 Pay-Per-View featuring Masvidal vs. Diaz in the ESPN app.

UFC 244 Masvidal vs. Diaz — The Main Event Preview
Jorge "Gamebred" Masvidal (34-13) has yet to capture an official UFC championship, but he is considered to hold a respected title in the MMA world — BMF. Jorge earned this distinction one fight at a time, and the UFC has an official resume explaining why Masvidal deserves this kind of respect. He has a reputation for a take-no-prisoners approach to making fight matches.
This may be his first time headlining a UFC Pay-Per-View, but with thirteen years as a pro fighter he can't be labelled an overnight success. Masvidal has shown a feast or famine approach, with five of his last six victories by knockout but all four of his recent losses coming by Decision. His last fight set a UFC record, as Masvidal scored the fastest knockout in UFC history with a knee to Ben Askren in five seconds flat. Can Jorge score another big knockout in this main event?
Nate Diaz (20-11) created this match with a mic in his hand, and now he has the chance to claim a title singlehanded moved from reputation to reality. After overwhelming Anthony Pettis at UFC 241, Diaz took the opportunity to callout Masvidal, but not in a traditional way. Instead of labeling him as overrated, weak, or for avoiding fights, Diaz gave him a nod as one of the true "gangsters" of the sport who could do a fight the right way.
Diaz' win at UFC 241 was his first fight back after three full years away from the sport, which came after splitting two legendary fights with Conor McGregor as Pay-Per-View headliners. With McGregor returning to the UFC as well, the promotion is sure to have an eye on a third match if Diaz is able to take care of business in NYC. His boxing background mixed with Masvidal's kickboxing skills could mean lots of stand-up striking by both fighters. Can Nate's fists backup his mouth again?
UFC President Dana White is creating a new belt for that unofficial title and bringing it to this fight. In fact, White also told TMZ Sports that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will be at UFC 244 to present the winner with the newly created title. This fight was almost off when Diaz announced he wouldn't be attending due to potential drug violation, but he was later cleared by the USADA so the fight goes on.
Get a feel for Jorge's power strikes in this Jan. 2017 fight against "Cowboy" Cerrone.
