The Dark Side of the UFC: A Four Corners Documentary

ABC's Four Corners investigates the harder truths behind the UFC's global success story. Beneath the glamour of the octagon, it examines fighter pay, health risks, and the commercial pressures on athletes in the fastest-growing combat sport. Through interviews and reporting, it asks who really profits from the spectacle and what it costs the people inside the cage. It is a sober, journalistic counterweight to the promotional shine of modern mixed martial arts. Free to stream in 4K on Dr Documentary.
