Apple updates its free Apple Sports app to include UFC coverage, letting users track fights live. Multiple outlets say the app provides real-time or near real-time stats tied to each bout, including strike analytics and a strike heat map. Coverage also highlights that fans can view fight-card details and follow events through the app’s unified sports experience.
Alongside UFC, several reports mention additional soccer league additions—specifically leagues from China, Russia, and Sweden. Outlets frame the update as part of Apple’s broader effort to expand Apple Sports across more sports, while focusing on the practical benefit of not missing key in-fight moments.
While the core features are consistent across sources, emphasis varies: some lead with UFC first and describe the analytics capabilities, while others briefly note the extra soccer leagues or the broader “scores and stats” improvements. Across all reports, the update is presented as an app feature expansion rather than a change to UFC itself.
