Overview
- Sky Sports and Zuffa Boxing signed a multi-year agreement naming Sky the UK and Ireland broadcaster for all Zuffa events.
- The deal includes a commitment to stage at least five Zuffa Boxing shows per year on UK soil, with a fuller 2026 schedule to be released in the coming weeks.
- The first Sky-aired card is ZUFFA BOXING 05 on April 5 from the Meta APEX in Las Vegas, headlined by Andres Cortes vs Eridson Garcia with Mark Magsayo vs Feargal McCrory as chief support.
- Zuffa Boxing launched in 2025 under Dana White and Nick Khan with backing from TKO Group and Saudi partner Sela, and its U.S. broadcasts stream on Paramount+.
- The expansion follows marquee signings such as Conor Benn and Jai Opetaia and arrives as rival promoters critique Zuffa’s model, including Top Rank’s Todd duBoef questioning a reported one-fight, $15 million Benn deal.
