If you’re new to boxing and want to catch all the bouts from the biggest stars in the sport, we can help you find the best and cheapest ways to watch boxing online. It can get complicated. Fighters are tied to specific promoters who are tied to specific streaming sites. The days of Friday night fights on network TV are long gone.
If you just want to watch the Day of Reckoning event, which features fantastic fights like Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin and Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker, you can buy the PPV for $40 at DAZN:
There are two main ways boxing is streamed: Pay-per-view fights and fights included in a monthly subscription. When a fight is a PPV, there’s no way of getting around that fee. Some sites give subscribers a discount on the PPV price, but when you include subscription fees it ultimately costs the same. We’ll be sure to show you the best ways to watch PPV boxing matches when they happen, but right now we’ll focus on the various subscription services that give you access to regular fights.
Unfortunately, there isn’t one streaming site that will give you every boxing match — no NFL Sunday Ticket type package. But a majority of the non-PPV fights are streamed on a handful of sites. While no one wants to add two or three more streaming services onto their monthly bill, you can get a lot of content out of these sites. For instance, some of them are also the best way to watch UFC, so if you’re a fan of both sports, you’ll only pay one bill. Here are the best subscriptions to watch boxing online.

Watch Boxing on Peacock
In the ’70s and ’80s, NBC was the home of boxing on network TV. Peacock is continuing that tradition with a newly announced streaming deal. NBC Sports announced a partnership with BOXXER, a U.K. and Ireland boxing promotion company that broadcasts its fights on Sky Sports in the U.K. NBC will now broadcast those fights on Peacock in the U.S., and some will even make their way to the main NBC network channel. Peacock currently costs $6 per month for a base plan or $12 per month for Premium, which removes ads, allows you to download content, and gets you access to your local NBC channel via live stream. Some boxing events may even be streamed on the Peacock free trial tier of the service.
Watch boxing from abroad with a VPN
Not all fights are available everywhere in the world. When subscription services try to lock you out of a fight, you can always try to spoof an internet connection in a country that does have access. We recommend NordVPN for this, as it’s the best VPN for streaming and the best VPN overall. It’s currently 54% off, making it $3.79 per month for a two-year subscription. There is a caveat here: Some streaming services are very mindful of VPNs, and will block your connection if they think you’re using one. It’s always worth a shot though, and there are a lot of other benefits to using a VPN besides streaming.
Can you still watch boxing on Showtime?
