International OTT streaming service DAZN has bolstered its portfolio of top-tier boxing rights, striking a new agreement with US promotion Premier Boxing Champions (PBC).
This global deal ensures PBC-organized fight cards will be broadcast worldwide on DAZN, with top-line pay-per-view events available exclusively via the 'DAZN on Prime Video' add-on to Amazon's own streaming service.

PBC’s roster of prominent fighters includes unified WBA and WBO cruiserweight world champion David Benavidez, former unified WBA, WBC, and IBF welterweight world champion Errol Spence Jr, WBC light middleweight world champion Sebastian Fundora, former undisputed light middleweight champion Jermell Charlo, and former WBS super featherweight champion Lamont Roach Jr.
This partnership will begin on pay-per-view on July 25, when Spence Jr. will return after three years out of the ring to take on fellow PBC signee Tim Tszyu, followed by another event on August 22, when Rolando Romero will face Teofimo Lopez for Romero’s WBA welterweight world championship.
The first non-pay-per-view fight cards scheduled under the deal – meaning they will be available to DAZN subscribers without any extra fee – will be staged on September 19 and October 17, as part of a "consistent schedule" of events.
Speaking on the deal, PBC spokesperson Tim Smith said: “Over the last decade, PBC has led the sport in major events featuring the biggest pay-per-view stars and the top champions across all weight divisions. This move represents a fantastic opportunity for the sport of boxing, and most importantly, the boxers.”
Shay Segev, DAZN Group chief executive, added: “PBC’s agreement with DAZN is a landmark moment for boxing, particularly in the U.S., where the sport has such a passionate and deeply engaged fanbase. This partnership brings one of America’s most influential boxing brands onto DAZN and strengthens our position as the premier destination for the biggest fighters, promoters, and events in the sport.”
DAZN has often expressed its ambition to serve as the ‘global home of boxing’, and recently reaffirmed that commitment through a new multi-year renewal with Golden Boy Promotions, ensuring that it has consolidated the rights to the sport’s four biggest promoters: Matchroom, Queensberry, Golden Boy, and Top Rank.
Back in February, DAZN extended its Matchroom rights agreement, covering the UK and the US, for the next five years, having first struck a deal with the promoter in 2021.
Queensberry then joined DAZN for the first time in April 2025 on a multi-year deal, finally uniting it on the same broadcaster as rival Matchroom after years of acrimony.
Top Rank also finally agreed a broadcast deal with DAZN in April 2026, despite founder Bob Arum previously stating his public dislike of the streaming platform.
Now, with the PBC promotion also added to the platform, Segev explains: “As the global home of boxing, DAZN is committed to expanding access, elevating the fan experience and delivering the fights that matter most to audiences in the US and around the world.”
