Anthony Joshua isn’t just a fighter; he’s a global brand. That means his fights aren’t on just one channel. It’s like trying to find a specific avocado in a grocery store—everyone claims to have it, but you gotta know where to look.
His opponent matters too. If it’s a mega-fight (think Fury, Usyk, or Wilder), the channel dance gets wilder. The bigger the name, the more networks grab a piece of the pie. You might need two streaming subscriptions and a prayer.
Where to Look First: The Streaming Giants
DAZN is usually the go-to for Joshua. It’s like the Netflix of boxing, except instead of “recommended for you,” it’s “please pay extra for this pay-per-view.” Check DAZN’s app or website first. They stream globally, but availability varies by country. Pro tip: Log in before fight time, or you’ll be watching the spinning wheel of doom.
In the US, ESPN+ sometimes snags Joshua fights. Or they sub-license to Showtime (RIP, cable kings). If you see “PPV on ESPN,” prepare your wallet. It usually costs about $70—or roughly the price of a fancy dinner you’ll miss because you’re stress-eating popcorn.
What About Regular Cable?
Oh, you thought you could just flip to Fox Sports or NBC? Cute. Sometimes Sky Sports in the UK carries Joshua, but that’s like saying “it’s on Channel 4 in Ireland.” Unless you live there, you’re out of luck. For US cable users, check your local sports network or PPV channels. Look for the “Event” section in your menu, usually buried under “On Demand” and “this is why I hate technology.”
