Short answer: in 2026 the question isn't really "where is boxing on?" but "which promoter is putting on this fight?". DAZN now carries Matchroom, Queensberry, Golden Boy, Top Rank and, since July, Premier Boxing Champions. Zuffa Boxing is on Paramount+ in the US and Sky Sports in the UK. The catch is that DAZN's consolidation came with a price rise, and its cheapest monthly plan still doesn't include the pay-per-view nights.
At a glance
Boxing by promoter, 2026
| DAZN | Matchroom, Queensberry, Golden Boy, Top Rank, PBC |
| Paramount+ (US) | Zuffa Boxing |
| Sky Sports (UK) | Zuffa Boxing, at least five UK cards a year |
| ESPN | Most Valuable Promotions' women's cards |
| Netflix | Occasional one-off events |
Why the promoter decides where you watch
Most sports sell rights through a league. Boxing has no league. Each promoter signs its own broadcast deals, and the fighters under contract to that promoter fight on that platform.
That means the same weight division can be spread across several services, and a fight between two promoters' boxers depends on a one-off agreement over who shows it.
2026 changed this more than any year in a decade. Top Rank left ESPN for DAZN in March, PBC moved to DAZN in July, and the UFC's owners launched Zuffa Boxing with Paramount. The net effect is fewer platforms than before, which is good news for viewers, and more concentration on one of them.
Our original guide to where to watch boxing covers the general picture and pay-per-view basics. This page is the promoter-by-promoter reference.
The 2026 promoter map
Who broadcasts which promoter, based on the deals announced up to September 2026.
| Promoter | US | UK and Ireland | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matchroom | DAZN | DAZN | Extended to 2031, about 30 events a year |
| Queensberry | DAZN | DAZN | Frank Warren's promotion |
| Top Rank | DAZN | DAZN | Left ESPN in 2026; 8-10 events a year |
| Premier Boxing Champions | DAZN | DAZN | Moved from Prime Video, July 2026 |
| Golden Boy | DAZN | DAZN | Long-standing DAZN partner |
| Zuffa Boxing | Paramount+ | Sky Sports | Run by the UFC's parent company |
| Most Valuable Promotions | ESPN | Varies | Women's cards, deal to 2028 |
Smaller promoters and regional shows use a wide range of outlets, from YouTube to local channels. They're worth following if you have a local fighter, but they sit outside this map.
DAZN's plans after the September price rise
DAZN raised its US prices on 10 September 2026, pointing to its expanded boxing roster. The plans now look like this.
| US plan | Price | Commitment |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly flexible | $34.99 a month | Cancel any time |
| Annual, paid monthly | $24.99 a month | 12 months |
| Annual, paid upfront | $249.99 | 12 months |
| Ultimate (includes PPVs) | $49.99 a month or $449.99 upfront | 12 months |
Flexible is for occasional viewers. If you only want a single big night, one month of the flexible plan is the right choice, but check whether that fight is a pay-per-view first.
Ultimate is a bet on the schedule. It bundles DAZN's pay-per-view events into the subscription. Whether it saves money depends on how many PPVs DAZN actually stages in your 12 months.
UK prices and plans are different, and DAZN's UK pricing also changes periodically. Check the current plan page in your own country.
Zuffa Boxing on Paramount+ and Sky
Zuffa Boxing is the promotion launched by TKO, the company behind the UFC, with Dana White at the head of it. It has taken a UFC-style approach, with fighters under contract to the promotion and a regular schedule.
In the US, its events are on Paramount+ as part of a larger deal between Paramount and TKO, reported at about $100 million a year and also covering Canada and Latin America. No separate pay-per-view is needed for the events included in that deal.
In the UK and Ireland, Sky Sports signed a multi-year agreement from April 2026, with a guaranteed minimum of five UK-staged cards a year. NOW Sports is the contract-free way to get Sky Sports.
ESPN, Netflix and the one-offs
ESPN lost its main boxing supply when Top Rank moved to DAZN. It retains Most Valuable Promotions' women's boxing, and reports during 2026 suggested other boxing could return to ESPN in future, so it's worth watching this space.
Netflix has staged a small number of very large one-off events, often built around celebrity or crossover fighters, and shown to all subscribers without a separate charge. These are announced individually rather than as part of a regular schedule.
Prime Video, formerly PBC's home, no longer has a regular boxing supply since PBC's move to DAZN.
Pay-per-view in 2026
Pay-per-view still exists but is less common than it was a few years ago. Paramount+ includes Zuffa's events in the subscription, and Netflix doesn't charge extra for its events.
DAZN still runs pay-per-view for its biggest nights, sold on top of a subscription unless you have the Ultimate plan. In the UK, some of the largest cards are also sold through Sky Box Office or TNT Sports Box Office, depending on who holds the fight.
The buying rule is simple: buy a pay-per-view from the official broadcaster, the promoter's own website, or your TV provider. If a price seems suspiciously low, it's usually not a licensed stream.
Devices and reliability on fight night
Big fight nights are among the heaviest streaming loads any platform handles, and the main event usually starts late. A little preparation avoids missing it.
Sign in and update the app earlier in the day. A forced update or a forgotten password at 11 p.m. is a common way to miss a ring walk.
Buy pay-per-views early. Purchase queues and payment checks can slow down just before the main card.
Use a wired connection if you can. DAZN, Paramount+ and Netflix all run on Roku, Fire TV, Google TV, Apple TV, games consoles and most smart TVs, but a wired or strong 5 GHz connection is what keeps the picture steady.
How to tell who's promoting a fight
If you're unsure where a fight will be shown, identify the promoter first.
Look at the poster. The promoter's logo is on every official fight poster, usually alongside the broadcaster's.
Check the fighters. A boxer's profile on the promoter's website, or the major boxing news sites, says who they fight for.
Watch for co-promotion. When two promoters' fighters meet, the fight might be on either platform. The announcement names the broadcaster.
Unlicensed "every sports channel" packages sometimes advertise every boxing platform together. They aren't licensed, they fail most often on exactly the big nights they're sold for, and they give you no recourse. For legitimate streaming options by device, see our guide to IPTV for sports.
Watching on a budget
Following boxing properly now costs less in services than it did a few years ago, but DAZN's pricing rewards commitment.
If you watch most months: the annual DAZN plan, paid upfront, works out at about $21 a month against about $35 on the flexible plan. Over a year, the difference is roughly $170.
If you watch a few big nights a year: buy the flexible month only when a card you want is on, and cancel straight after. Note the renewal date so you aren't charged for a second month.
If you follow Zuffa's fighters: Paramount+ is one of the cheaper routes to regular top-level boxing in the US, and its entry-level plan also carries a wide range of other sport.
In the UK: Zuffa's cards need Sky Sports or a NOW Sports membership, while almost everything else is on DAZN. A NOW day or month pass can cover a single event if you don't subscribe to Sky.
Check who shows the undercard. Big events sometimes put preliminary bouts on a free platform, such as a promoter's YouTube channel or a free tier, with the main card behind the paywall. That can be a good way to try a promoter's fighters before paying.
Whatever the budget, use the platforms' own apps on a reliable device. Our streaming box guide covers what matters for smooth live sport.
