The company added to its robust lineup <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/fannation\/boxing\/top-rank-ceo-bob-arum-excited-for-new-chapter-with-dazn-deal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">by adding Top Rank Boxing<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/fannation\/boxing\/golden-boy-and-dazn-agree-on-new-multi-year-deal\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Golden Boy Promotions<\/a> earlier in 2026.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"51\">DAZN added another major promotion to its growing list by announcing a partnership with Premier Boxing Champions on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>PBC and DAZN announce deal<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"57\">&#8220;I&#8217;m very excited about today to be able to announce a partnership between DAZN and Premier Boxing Champions,&#8221; DAZN Head of PR Britton Hardin said at the Rolando Romero vs. Teofimo Lopez introductory press conference. <\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5a\">&#8220;[PBC is] one of the outstanding, stellar promotions of modern day boxing. It really shows what we&#8217;re trying to do at DAZN. That&#8217;s bringing the best fights, the best fighters and the biggest fight nights under one platform so that the audience can be super-served.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">DAZN \ud83e\udd1d PBC.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s official.

Up until the DAZN announcement, its major events had been available for pay-per-view purchase on the popular streaming platform.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5j\">PBC events will likely continue to simulcast on Prime Video until the end of 2026, when its current broadcast deal is set to expire. Prime Video has an active global distribution deal with DAZN.<\/p>\n<p>PBC completes DAZN Boxing monopoly<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5p\">After adding PBC, Zuffa Boxing is the only major promotion to which DAZN does not own the broadcast rights. The Dana White-run promotion still has multiple years left on Paramount+, a platform it shares with sister company UFC.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"5s\">In addition to adding more content to its slate, DAZN recently breached linear television by broadcasting &#8216;The Fight,&#8217; headlined by Abdullah Mason and Albert Bell, on TNT on July 4. A few more fall events are already scheduled to be broadcast on TNT in the United States.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/01kwryzsydd52xh8tad8.jpg\" alt=\"Abdullah Mason\" title=\"Abdullah Mason\" width=\"360\" height=\"203\" class=\"undefined w-full w-full blur-[5px]\" q:id=\"62\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Abdullah Mason | Courtesy: Top Rank<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"66\">DAZN remains estranged from a few other mid-level promotions, including Jake Paul&#8217;s Most Valuable Promotions and ProBox TV. But whenever a major fight is announced, fans can now fully expect to catch it on DAZN.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"69\">With Zuffa Boxing operating under its own rule set, DAZN houses every major promotion fans have become accustomed to over the years. The channel recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/fannation\/boxing\/dazn-announces-new-subscription-bundle-for-boxing-fans\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">announced an &#8220;Ultimate&#8221; plan<\/a> that gives boxing fans access to every event, including pay-per-view cards, for $49.99 per month.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-15\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6c\">PBC is currently the primary home of David Benavidez, Isaac &#8216;Pitbull&#8217; Cruz, Errol Spence Jr., Stephen Fulton, Mario Barrios and the Charlo brothers, among others. Al Haymon&#8217;s company has also promoted Gervonta &#8216;Tank&#8217; Davis, who is expected to eventually return to the ring in 2027.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.minutemediacdn.com\/platform\/google_discover_icon.svg\" class=\"shrink-0\"\/>Add us as a preferred source on Google<a aria-label=\"Follow si.com on Google News\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=si.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" class=\"flex h-[30px] w-[30px] shrink-0 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-primary font-group-large text-sm font-medium text-white transition-colors hover:bg-secondary focus:bg-secondary md:w-auto md:gap-2.5 md:px-4 md:py-[5px]\">Follow<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"DAZN is now one step closer to completing a boxing broadcast monopoly.
