TKO and Paramount are expanding their relationship as the network is now officially the home of Zuffa Boxing.
The two companies jointly announced on Monday that Paramount+ will be the exclusive home for Zuffa Boxing beginning in January 2026. The release states that the deal is a “long-term media rights agreement.”
The value and length of the deal were not revealed.
Earlier this year, the UFC inked a seven-year, $7 billion-plus deal to have Paramount be the exclusive media rights partner of the promotion,
including all of the numbered events. UFC and Zuffa Boxing CEO Dana White is thrilled that both organizations are under the Paramount umbrella, which creates a one-stop shop for fans.
“I’m excited to bring great boxing events to a global audience,” Dana White said. “There are millions of boxing fans that will now be able to watch competitive fights with up-and-coming boxers as well as the biggest stars in the sport. Paramount will be the home for UFC and boxing fans to watch the greatest fights in combat sports.”
The partnership will have Zuffa Boxing putting on 12 events per year streaming on Paramount+, although the announcement states there’s possibility of select events to simulcast on CBS, “or other Paramount platforms.”
Further details will be announced at a later date, including when the first event under the new deal will take place.
