DAZN IS ALREADY the global home of boxing. Now, they have added one more powerhouse promotion that nearly brings the sport under the roof of one broadcaster. The streaming service has announced a landmark partnership with Premier Boxing Champions that will bring PBC’s marquee fight nights to fans around the world on DAZN.
The partnership begins on Saturday, July 25, with the return of former three-belt welterweight champion Errol Spence Jr. taking on Australian superstar and former super welterweight champion Tim Tszyu in Australia, a media release said.
That will continue with another blockbuster event when WBA welterweight champion Rolly Romero and former lightweight and super lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez clash on August 22 in Las Vegas on DAZN on Prime Video, in a high-stakes showdown between two of boxing’s most explosive and outspoken talents.
“With today’s announcement, DAZN is really picking it up a notch,” Tom Brown, the head of TGB Promotions said. “This relationship with PBC is going to be something special.”
The agreement is a major step in DAZN’s continued investment in boxing and further strengthens a schedule that already delivers more premium fight nights than any other platform. PBC joins an unrivalled roster of boxing entities on DAZN, alongside Matchroom Boxing, Golden Boy Promotions, Top Rank, Queensberry, Boxxer, Salita Promotions, MF Pro and now TGB Promotions.
The DAZN and PBC deal opens the door for more megafights to take place, with a lower chance of fighters dodging bouts for one reason or another, the release added.
