It was previously reported that PBC’s contract with Showtime will end in 2024. It was also noted that Showtime will have only PPVs on its network starting in 2024.
On the other hand, DAZN is already home to Matchroom and Golden Boy Promotions, so it is a question of whether they can afford to bring in PBC as well.
Currently, it is likely that PBC will land on Amazon Prime only, but the deal is yet to get cemented.
Stay tuned for more updates.
