I have searched for info on how to get HDNet in Australia and had no success. I ended up directly emailing Jeff Cuban who i assume is Mark Cuban's brother (the owner of HDNet).
(Contact details obtained from:
HDNet About Us
He responded two days later with the following email:
Jerome, unfortunately there is no way to get our many fights in Australia at this time. that said, we have talked to several distributors in your territory about a deal but have yet to secure anything. it might be helpful if you contacted them and let them know there would be interest.
Take care,
jeff
I think this is great news but we all need to let Austar and Foxtel know that there is a growing market for MMA on pay TV.
If you agree, click on the links below and request that HDNet become available in Australia:

Good morning
I am writing to see if there is anyway people from Australia can subscribe to HDNet? The ability to watch HDNet via the internet would be a great. I am a huge MMA fan.
Thank you for your time.
