The UFC Foundation and Total Wireless are kicking off Fight Week in partnership with Hit The Books MMA, a nonprofit promoting literacy through sports. Together, they will host a Q&A (November 13) and youth fitness seminar with former UFC flyweight champion Alexa Grasso and welterweight contender Gilbert Burns. The event will be open exclusively to students of Hit The Books MMA, giving them a unique chance to experience how education and athletics intersect.Following the seminar, Total Wireless will extend the Fight Week excitement with a lineup of community events across New York City leading up to UFC 322.
Total Wireless is committed to connecting communities in meaningful ways that go beyond wireless service. Our partnership with UFC creates authentic opportunities for families to engage with their sports heroes while reinforcing the importance of community connection. We’re proving that championship experiences shouldn’t require championship prices.

On Friday, November 14, UFC Hall of Famer and commentator Daniel Cormier will headline a meet and greet at the Total Wireless store on 3341 Broadway from 4 to 7 PM. The celebration will include complimentary food, a live DJ, and giveaways featuring UFC 322 tickets, DraftKings VIP watch party access, and premium merchandise. It offers fans and families a rare opportunity to meet one of UFC’s most decorated athletes in an informal neighborhood setting.
The next day, Saturday, November 15, Gilbert Burns will meet fans at the Total Wireless store on 1656 Broadway from 2 to 4 PM. The event will feature live music, raffles, and exclusive prizes just hours before the UFC 322 action begins at Madison Square Garden.
That same evening, Total Wireless and DraftKings will host a UFC 322 Watch Party at Legends Sports Bar, located at 6 W 33rd St, from 9 PM to midnight. Fans can secure VIP access through the Total Wireless meet and greets or by visiting the store at 646 9th Avenue before November 14. VIP guests will enjoy premium seating, complimentary appetizers, exclusive merchandise, and appearances from the Total Wireless Ring girls.
Join the festivities
New Yorkers can take part in the excitement of Fight Week by joining Total Wireless and UFC at a series of special events across the city. Fans are encouraged to stop by participating Total Wireless locations and dive into the action firsthand. The spirit behind these celebrations reflects the brand’s core belief — that top-tier experiences should be accessible to everyone.
All meet and greet events are free and open to the public, available on a first-come, first-served basis. Access to the DraftKings Watch Party, however, requires VIP tickets, which can be redeemed at select Total Wireless stores.
