DAZN sign deal with Queensberry as exclusive broadcaster

DAZN and Queensberry Promotions just shook up the boxing world. Starting April 1, 2025, DAZN will become the exclusive global broadcaster for all Queensberry events, bringing some of boxing’s most exciting matchups to fans worldwide on a single platform. This partnership is big news for both entities, with Queensberry Promotions joining DAZN’s elite boxing lineup alongside Matchroom, Golden Boy Promotions, and Misfits Boxing.

For Queensberry, 2024 has already been a banner year. The promotion signed several high-profile fighters and even triumphed in a head-to-head showdown against Matchroom in the highly publicized “5v5” event. Now, Queensberry sets its sights on an even bigger stage, with DAZN securing their events as exclusive content for the platform, allowing fans from New York to Tokyo to catch every punch, knockout, and comeback moment.

Frank Warren on DAZN Partnership: “A Brilliant Move”

Frank Warren, the founder and chairman of Queensberry Promotions, speaks enthusiastically about this new chapter. “I could not be more pleased that Queensberry is joining DAZN,” Warren says. “This is a brilliant move for our fighters and, most importantly, for the fans. Their ambition and passion for the sport of boxing aligns perfectly with that of our own, and we now look forward to putting on the biggest nights possible together.” For Warren, the decision is about ensuring that Queensberry’s fighters and the loyal fans who follow them get the exposure they deserve.

George Warren Sees a “Proud Moment” for Queensberry

Queensberry’s CEO, George Warren, echoes the sentiment, calling it a “hugely proud moment.” As he sees it, DAZN’s reach and platform will help propel Queensberry’s fighters and events to new heights on the international scene. “Queensberry has undergone an unprecedented growth period over the past 18 months and firmly established ourselves as a leading promotional and events company,” he notes. With DAZN in their corner, Warren believes the company will now have even more room to “accelerate” on a global scale.

He highlights how this deal stands to benefit fans as well, remarking, “This deal is also fantastic news for boxing fans across the world as we combine our best-in-class stable of fighters with what we consider to be the most ambitious streaming platform in sport.”

A Unified Hub for Boxing

For boxing fans, the DAZN deal means something rare in the world of sports broadcasting - consolidation. With more top-tier fights accessible on one platform, DAZN now serves as a hub for followers of several major promotions. Fans can now catch marquee events from Matchroom, Golden Boy, and Misfits Boxing alongside Queensberry’s lineup, all under one virtual roof.

DAZN’s expansion in boxing has steadily grown over the years, and the addition of Queensberry Promotions is a strong statement of their intent to keep investing in the sport. DAZN’s partnerships with Matchroom and Golden Boy have already paid dividends, delivering some of the biggest fights of recent years. Now, the addition of Queensberry further solidifies DAZN’s status as a go-to source for boxing.

This new partnership also comes with the hope that DAZN’s technological edge will elevate the viewing experience for fans. With features like real-time analytics, replay functions, and customizable viewing options, DAZN has brought a more interactive, engaging dimension to fight night that cable and pay-per-view formats often miss.

As the global boxing scene evolves, DAZN and Queensberry seem poised to shape its future, promising memorable matchups, rising stars, and blockbuster events - all of it streamed live to a worldwide audience. The countdown to April 2025 has begun, and fans are ready to see what this new era of boxing will bring.
