PBC, which was founded in 2015, has a roster of over 150 active fighters across weight divisions, including current world champions. Some of its flagship bouts in 2023 include David Benavidez vs. Caleb Plant, Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs. Ryan Garcia, Errol Spence vs. Terence Crawford, and Canelo Alvarez vs. Jermell Charlo.

Earlier this week, Amazon Prime’s coverage of the National Football League’s (NFL) ‘Thursday Night Football’ (TNF) clash between the Dallas Cowboys and the Seattle Seahawks averaged 15.26 million viewers, meaning the fixture became the most-streamed in NFL history.

At its peak, 17.76 million viewers tuned in last week (November 30) to see the Cowboys win 41-35, beating the previous highest-streamed TNF game in Week 2 (September 12), when 15.1 million viewers watched the Philadelphia Eagles defeat the Minnesota Vikings.

The game also became the most-watched NFL clash on Amazon Prime since it took over exclusive broadcast rights to TNF ahead of the 2022 season. The streaming platform has broadcast TNF in some capacity since 2017 either through its primary service of gaming-focused free streaming site Twitch.
