Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is live TODAY (Sat., June 27, 2026) with UFC Baku<\/a>, streaming live online via Paramount+<\/a>. The event happens inside Baku Crystal Hall in Baku, Azerbaijan.<\/p>\n

UFC is back out on the road this week for its second trip<\/a> to the Azerbaijan capital of Baku (and its second juicy site fee<\/a> from that small nation). The fight card is tailored specifically for their patrons, as you\u2019d expect.<\/p>\n

The co-main is a funky match-up between Michel Pereira vs. Shara Magomedov<\/a>. These two have lots of highlights to their names. They also have a few head-scratching moments, too. Both are coming off wins here, but both also need to do a lot more to become factors in the Middleweight division.<\/p>\n

Rounding out the main card is Nazim Sadykhov vs. Matheus Camilo, Asu Almabayev vs. Charles Johnson, Brunno Ferreira vs. Ikram Aliskerov and Abus Magomedov vs. Michal Oleksiejczuk.<\/p>\n

The \u201cPrelims\u201d are headlined by Farman Hasanov vs. Eric Nolan. The \u201cPrelims\u201d are also home to top prospect Abdul Rakhman Yakhyaev. He fights Julius Walker. Nursulton Ruziboev vs. Andrey Pulyaev should also be a good scrap on the undercard.<\/p>\n

UFC Baku Start Date and Time<\/p>\n

The live blog here starts rolling below at 9 a.m. ET. Come in and say hi!<\/p>\n

UFC BAKU PLAY-BY-PLAY UPDATES<\/p>\n

Tahir Abdullayev vs. Jefferson Nascimento: Nothing happened in the first round of this fight, much to the chagrin of the crowd and, to be fair, Abdullayev. In the second round Adullayev came forwards, but walked into big counter shots from Nascimento. In the third round, they actually started fighting. Adullayev got a takedown and landed some big ground and pound. After Abdullayev landed some big shots the referee stepped in with an absurd early stoppage for the hometown fighter.<\/p>\n

Official decision: Tahir Abdullayev def. Jefferson Nascimento by TKO (ground and pound), round 3 (4:28)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is live TODAY (Sat., June 27, 2026) with UFC Baku, streaming live online via…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":649311,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[444],"tags":[49,48,641,33601,638,82,37643,139445,702,7788],"class_list":["post-764782","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-fighting","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-mma","tag-sports","tag-ufc-live-stream","tag-ufc-on-paramount","tag-ufc-news","tag-ufc-results"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764782","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=764782"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764782\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/649311"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=764782"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=764782"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=764782"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
