How to watch MMA fights in Meta Horizon Worlds

According to UFC, fans had the opportunity to watch the LFA 44 main card on Friday, Oct. 14 at 9 p.m. ET, but if you missed it, “the event will also be available as ‘always on’ in Horizon Worlds from Oct. 23-27.” As it turns out, UFC fights aren’t the only MMA events you can watch in Meta Horizon Worlds. I also spotted a Nakasu vs. Agasa fight at the helm of ONE Championship, another sports media company that delivers MMA content. Follow the instructions below to find out how you can enjoy MMA fights in VR.

  1. You must have a Quest 2 headset.

  6. Under the “Discover” tab, scroll down to “Popular public hangouts.”
