You Wanna Throw Down for UFC on Hulu? Here's How to Not Get KO'd by Confusion
So, you're jonesin' for some octagon action, the kind that'll leave you yelling at the TV like you're Dana White himself. But hold on there, fight fan! You gotta navigate the digital ropes before you can witness the next knock-out. Here's the lowdown on how to snag that UFC PPV on Hulu and avoid a technical difficulty TKO.
First things first, you gotta be in the right gym, champ.
This ain't your grandpappy's Hulu. You need to be subscribed to either The Disney Bundle (which stuffs Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ into one big bag) or have the ESPN+ add-on for your regular Hulu subscription. Side note: If you're billed by Disney for Hulu, you gotta buy the PPV through ESPN directly, not through Hulu. Kind of a weird jab there, but hey, it is what it is.
Alright, you're in the right gym. Now, loosen up those virtual wallets.
Head over to the big fight (the UFC PPV, that is) and you should see a glorious "buy" button. Don't be shy, hit it like you mean it! Important note: This PPV purchase is a separate transaction from your regular Hulu subscription, so be ready to pony up some extra cash.
Where'd the fight go? Don't panic, it's just chilling in your corner.
Once you've bought the PPV, it doesn't magically appear in your living room like a ninja. Head over to "My Stuff" and there should be a brand new tab called "Purchases". Voila! There's your UFC PPV, ready to be unleashed.
Bonus Round: Troubleshooting Tips for Wannabe Octagon Masters
- Did you double-check you have the ESPN+ add-on or the Disney Bundle? No ESPN+, no UFC love.
- Restart the app. Sometimes technology needs a good talking to (or just a quick digital reboot).
- Check your internet connection. A buffering wheel of death is the ultimate fight spoiler.
There you have it, folks! Now you can settle in, grab some snacks (because who can fight on an empty stomach?), and enjoy the epic throwdown. Remember, these fighters train like beasts, so put some respect on their names (and maybe mute your uncle Steve if he gets a little too enthusiastic).
