Due to the ongoing fight week in London, full prices and broadcast details have been confirmed. £24.99 in the UK and Ireland, $49.99 in the US and Canada, and $19.99 elsewhere. Access is granted after one payment, no subscription included. The card is based on name recognition and real risk for both men.
There is also a package option. DAZN is offering this card in conjunction with Fabio Wardley vs. Daniel Dubois on May 9 for £39.99 or $89.99. This lowers costs in the case of two ponderous nights, although it still requires buyers to commit before the results.
The third route is the ultimate level of DAZN. It costs £24.99 per month in the UK and $44.99 in the US, and PPVs are included as part of the subscription. The value depends on the activity. Repeat buyers will see savings within a year. Casual buyers may stick to a one-time purchase.
The card is streaming worldwide via DAZN. Broadcast starts at 7pm BST, which is 2pm EST. The main event circuits are expected around 10pm BST, which is 5pm EST.
The story of the tape Derek Chisora is 42 years ancient, 6 feet 2 inches, with a 74-inch reach and a record of 36-13 with 23 knockouts. Deontay Wilder is 40 years ancient, 6 feet 7 inches statuesque, has 83 inches of reach and has a record of 44-4-1 with 43 knockouts.
Chisora treats it as his last night. He went through challengers, champions and everything in between, compiling a record of 36-13 with 23 knockouts. The crowd will be with him in London. He will move forward, work on his body and try to draw Wilder into exchanges.
Wilder arrives with a different pressure. With a record of 44-4-1 and 43 knockouts, his right hand still changes fights at a moment’s notice. The failure leaves him out of the title interview.
“I know they love warriors in London, but what happens when a warrior takes on a freak of nature? Derek brings the passion, but I bring the power that ends the bloodlines. Derek comes to fight, but I come with the detonation. And it will end in an explosion.”
“I look unstoppable,” Wilder said. “I just want to transfer what I’ve achieved in sparring and training to an actual fight where it really counts. And what better opponent can I have than Derek War Chisora and what better place than London, the O2 Arena?
“I’m ready to write my history in the history books. Derek has to be perfect for 12 rounds. I only have to be perfect for two seconds. Bam Bay, good night,” Wilder said.
Chisora wants one last victory in front of his home crowd. Wilder needs a performance that will put him back in line for the next round.
“I know what energy I need, I need this crazy energy,” Chisora said. “All I need is war and pain. That’s what I bring and I will hit this man anywhere.
“Listen, the O2 will be bustling, my children will come, the only hardest thing at the O2 for me will be walking around the ring, but after the first bell everything will be straightforward for me.
“We might not even see the second round. This is how I feel right now, I’m so fit and so ready for this fight, I might not even see the second round. Maybe I could, so fuck it, let’s go.”
On the card below, the European cruiserweight title fight between Viddal Riley and Mateusz Masternak, while Denzel Bentley also fights in the middleweight division. The rest of the card is filled with prospects and tiny fights, although the focus remains on the main event.
The O2 Arena has hosted title fights and heavyweight nights for years. There’s one more on this list, though the stakes are personal rather than tied to belts.
The price reflects this. It’s a name-driven event built around two fighters who have fought against the best and are still trying to find one more night at the top.

The situation surrounding all of Oleksandr Usyk’s world champion titles has already been determined before his fight with kickboxer Rico Verhoeven.
The WBC controversially put its belt on the line before this fight, meaning that Verhoeven, despite having little or no chance of winning, could win the belt in May 23 in Egypt.
The WBA announced today that the fight will count as a successful world title defense if Usyk wins, but the challenger will not be able to claim the belt, even if it causes seismic shocks. If this happens, a committee will meet on next steps.
The IBF has taken a similar stance, but while Verhoeven cannot win that title either, the sanctioning body will immediately declare the heavyweight belt vacant if Usyk loses.
The conditions under which Usyk can fight to remain champion are as follows:
1. If Usyk loses on May 23, 2026, the IBF heavyweight title will be immediately declared vacant.
2. If Usyk wins on May 23, 2026, the IBF will recognize the WBC’s position in the rotation and will order an IBF mandatory fight for one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter.
3. If the WBA grants special permission, the IBF will recognize the WBA’s position in the rotation and order an IBF mandatory fight for one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter.
4. The IBF reserves the right to change the mandatory deadline in the event of significant delays in the rotation.
After the fight with Verhoeven, Usyk will be ordered to face WBC mandatory Agit Kabayel, and promoter Frank Warren is sure that he will be stripped of the belt if he does not fulfill his obligation.
Some praised Foster’s conditioning and predicted a good performance against Ford, while others doubted whether the WBC super featherweight champion would pull too much weight before the defense.
Foster rarely receives as much attention as some of the bigger names in the lower weight classes, but a viral photo has brought him back into the conversation online. Fans debated whether Ford would be able to handle Foster’s strength and physicality after moving from featherweight to fighting.
The fight was already generating attention due to the Houston setting and the tension between the two fighters online, but Foster’s photo from training sparked even more discussion about the DAZN card. Houston fans are expected to turn out in immense numbers for the event at the Fertitta Center, which will be one of the biggest hometown shows of Foster’s career.
Foster gained more attention after his victory over Stephen Fulton, with many fans hoping he would stay at lightweight and continue pushing for a fight with Shakur Stevenson.
Instead, Foster returned to 130 pounds, and talk of fighting Stevenson gradually died down.
A powerful performance against Ford could change that quickly, especially if Foster delivers the kind of performance fans now expect after seeing the state he appears to be in heading into the fight.

Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao are considered two of the greatest of all time, but despite their meeting in 2015, fans still argue over which man was the greatest. Now the world-famous coach Robert Garcia has spoken.
Pacquiao is the only eight-division boxing world champion in history. In his legendary career, he ruled the flyweight division in 1998 and then ruled every division from super bantamweight to super welterweight.
Although unlike the self-proclaimed “TBE”, “Pac Man” was defeated eight times, including a loss to Mayweather, who famously retired with a 50-0 record, having won world titles in five different weight classes.
However, in clip captured by RyckesportsTVGarcia stated that he believes Pacquiao ranks higher in the “GOAT” debate because of the love he has received outside the ring as well as his skills in it.
“I think Pacquiao was better. Mike Tyson told me something: ‘To be the GOAT, it’s not just because of your boxing records, you have to be loved and accepted by the fans’ – and everyone loves Pacquiao.
“As Tyson says, [you must be able to] walk down the street with no bodyguards, everyone who comes up to you shakes your hand, if you can’t do it, you can’t be the GOAT if you can’t do it.
