The promotional outfit now joins domestic rivals Queensberry Promotions, Matchroom Boxing and MF Pro on the platform.
Ben Shalom’s BOXXER has entered a new chapter after securing a fresh partnership with DAZN.
Under the agreement, the highly anticipated rematch between Troy Williamson and Callum Simpson will be streamed on the global sports platform.
The pair will run it back on Saturday, 8 August, at Leeds’ First Direct Bank Arena.
Their second meeting comes after their dramatic first clash in December, when Troy Williamson dropped Simpson four times in the tenth round before forcing a stoppage to claim a TKO victory.
That win saw Williamson secure the British, Commonwealth and European super-middleweight titles.
Speaking on the announcement, Ben Shalom, Founder and CEO of BOXXER, said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with DAZN, the global home of boxing, to showcase this event to a worldwide audience.
“Leeds will provide an incredible atmosphere on August 8, and we’re excited to build on this momentum with more major events on DAZN, including a huge BOXXER Pay-Per-View event later this year.
“Troy Williamson vs Callum Simpson II is one of British boxing’s most eagerly anticipated rematches.
“Williamson tore up the script and sent shockwaves through the super-middleweight division when he knocked out Simpson in front of his home fans in December.
“Now, Simpson is out for revenge and has the opportunity to put things right and prove he belongs at world level.”
As part of the deal, DAZN will also broadcast a major BOXXER pay-per-view event in the latter stages of 2026.
Although Boxing King Media understands that BOXXER will continue its existing relationship with the BBC.
