A Note on International Viewers
If you are outside the US, Canada, or the UK, the best practice is to check the official World Boxing Council (WBC) or the promoters’ social media channels for a list of official broadcast partners in your country. Major international sports networks often secure the rights for such high-profile events.Why You Should Always Stream Legally
It can be tempting to search for unofficial, free streams, but this comes with significant risks and downsides:- Poor Quality & Reliability: Illegal streams are often low-resolution, laggy, and can cut out at the most critical moment—like during a knockout.
- Security Risks: These sites are breeding grounds for malware, viruses, and phishing scams that can compromise your personal data.
- It Hurts the Sport: PPV revenue directly supports the fighters, promoters, and everyone involved in putting on the event. Piracy undermines the financial health of boxing.
