Netherlands and MMA: A Deep Connection
The Netherlands is arguably the world's greatest nation for combat sports culture. From the legendary gyms of Amsterdam and Rotterdam that produced kickboxing and Muay Thai world champions to elite MMA fighters competing at the highest international levels, Dutch fighting tradition is woven into the country's sporting identity. Following the UFC is a natural extension of that passion.
Dutch gyms like Vos Gym, Golden Glory, and Mejiro Gym have shaped MMA fighters who compete globally. The heavyweight division dominates 2025 headlines, with Jon Jones and Tom Aspinall locked in a standoff the sport desperately needs resolved inside the Octagon. The featherweight and middleweight divisions provide must-watch action every card. livetv keeps you updated on every upcoming card and CET broadcast time.

The Netherlands has the best fighting tradition in the world. Watching UFC knowing our gyms produce fighters at this level is something very special. The Jones situation needs resolving but Aspinall is ready — give the man his shot already.
I started watching MMA through Bellator first then got deep into UFC. The featherweight division is the most technical fighting you will ever see. Topuria vs Holloway was an absolute classic from start to finish. livetv had the full card preview ready before fight day.
UFC Saturday nights are a whole event at our place. We start watching prelims at 1am, keep the energy up with coffee, and make it to the main event around 5am. Brutal but brilliant — the production quality on ESPN+ is excellent.
People underestimate how big combat sports are in the Netherlands. From my neighbourhood growing up every kid either played football or did kickboxing. The UFC is the logical destination for fans who love that culture.
