The UK boxing broadcast map in 2025-26 is split mostly between Sky Sports and DAZN UK, with selected events on TNT Sports. The PPV layer runs through Sky Sports Box Office and DAZN UK PPV. Free-to-air boxing on the BBC and ITV exists but is now a rare event rather than a regular cadence.
The 2025-26 UK boxing map
Sky Sports carries Boxxer-promoted UK cards as the lead boxing partner. Boxxer is the in-house promotional outfit that runs the bulk of Sky’s domestic boxing schedule. The Sky Sports subscription (Sky Sports Action or the full sports package) covers Boxxer cards, with PPV-tier headliners running through Sky Sports Box Office at separate per-card pricing.
DAZN UK carries Matchroom Boxing and Queensberry Promotions in the UK market. Matchroom is Eddie Hearn’s promoter, Queensberry is Frank Warren’s. Both ran on Sky in the prior decade but moved to DAZN under the platform’s UK boxing strategy. DAZN UK is £14.99 per month or £119.99 per year. Most Matchroom and Queensberry cards are included with the subscription; the largest annual headliners require DAZN UK PPV add-ons.
TNT Sports carries selected boxing events as part of the platform’s broader combat-sports portfolio. TNT’s main boxing presence is the Top Rank-promoted US cards re-broadcast for UK audiences, sourced from the parent ESPN deal. TNT Sports Box Office handles the PPV layer for UFC and selected boxing events.
Sky Sports Box Office is the dominant UK boxing PPV vendor. Pricing in 2025-26 has been £24.95 per card for Boxxer headliners and £19.95 to £24.95 for Sky-distributed events. The PPV add-on is on top of the underlying Sky Sports subscription.
BBC Sport and ITV carry occasional free-to-air boxing — typically major heavyweight events where a UK fighter is involved, or one-off broadcast specials. The cadence is irregular and shrinking. The most recent free-to-air UK boxing events were limited to one to two cards per year.
How UK boxing PPV pricing works
| Vendor | Promoter | PPV price |
|---|---|---|
| Sky Sports Box Office | Boxxer + Sky-distributed | £24.95 per card |
| DAZN UK PPV | Matchroom, Queensberry global | £19.95 to £24.95 per card |
| TNT Sports Box Office | UFC + selected boxing | £19.95 to £29.95 per card |
Each PPV layer sits on top of its underlying subscription. A DAZN UK PPV requires the DAZN UK subscription. A Sky Sports Box Office PPV requires Sky Sports access (cable carriage, NOW TV day pass, or full Sky subscription). A TNT Sports PPV requires TNT Sports access (BT Sport / Discovery+ bundle).
The minimum UK boxing setup
A fan tracking every active UK boxing promoter needs:
- Sky Sports via the cheapest entry — NOW TV Sports day pass at £14.99/day or month pass at £34.99/mo
- DAZN UK at £14.99/mo
- TNT Sports via the Discovery+ Premium bundle at £30.99/mo
The all-in monthly cost for a complete UK boxing setup at launch month is roughly £80, dropping to about £50 if you skip the TNT Sports subscription (acceptable for fans not following UFC or the smaller TNT-distributed boxing cards).
