On Saturday at UFC 202 in Las Vegas, Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor step into the cage for their rematch, nearly five months after Diaz upset the featherweight champion with a rear naked choke in their first meeting to shock everyone but himself.

The tension between these two is palpable, only adding to the marketability of the fight, and it is a must-watch event for all MMA fans.

The event itself is broken into three portions, two preliminary cards and a main card. The first prelim card is aired exclusively on UFC Fight Pass and begins at 6:30 p.m. ET. Fight Pass is a subscription-based service that requires a monthly fee, and Saturday's offering is anchored by a welterweight showdown between Neil Magny and Lorenz Larkin.

At 8 p.m. ET the event moves to Fox Sports 1 for the second preliminary card, and can be streamed for free on Fox Sports Go. The featured fight of this portion of the card is a bantamweight showdown between Cody Garbrandt, a hot contender rising the rankings, and Takeya Mizugaki.

At 10 p.m. the card moves to pay-per-view. It can be ordered through television providers, ordered on Fight Pass or YouTube for streaming. UFC 202 costs $59.99 to order on Fight Pass.
